Heaps of hugs and kisses from superstars Whitney and Bobby

WHAT a loving couple are Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown.

Last night I joined them on board business tycoon Allan Zeman's 94-foot all-creature-comforts-catered-for luxury yacht Ze-Breeze II for a harbour cruise and dinner on Lamma Island.

And they never stopped. They were hugging and kissing each other before we boarded, during the sea journey and even at dinner - between mouthfuls of clams and oysters.

They took a break only when the crabs arrived, with both sets of ring-encrustedhands going to work with relish.

Mind you, Bobby did break off when I sat next to them on the homeward journey to tell me he wished he was doing a second concert here. ''It was one of the best gigs I've ever played,'' he drooled. ''Yes, it was fantastic . . . fantastic,'' butted in Whitney.

''It's your second time here, right?'' I asked.
