Kevin Costner Says He’s ‘Lucky’ to Have Another Birthday as He Remembers Whitney Houston: ‘We Lost Such a Light When We Lost’ Her

As Kevin Costner turns 70, he remembers his once costar Whitney Houston.

On his birthday, Jan. 18, Costner shared a photo to his Instagram Stories of himself and Houston on the set of 1992’s “The Bodyguard,” in which the pair costarred. “Happy birthday to Kevin Costner!,” read the photo’s caption.
