Best Answer

It seems to have developed gradually, as a result of her ongoing addiction to cocaine. According to the autopsy that was released after she was found dead in 2012 (she drowned in a hotel bath-tub), the cause of death was not just drowning-- it was Heart disease brought on by cocaine use. Houston had previously acknowledged in interviews that she had a problem with cocaine; and it absolutely did factor into her death at such a young age (she was only 48).
