A Restrained 'Relation'-ship

Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, who have been chilling out on the Indian Ocean isle of Mauritius, are due back here at the end of the week for a roller-rink birthday party for their daughter, Bobbi Kristina, who is turning 8.

The family should be relieved to hear that a New Jersey judge has reinstated an order shielding Houston from an obsessed fan who believes Whitney is her "supernatural reincarnated mother."

New Jersey Superior Court Judge Kenneth MacKenzie yesterday issued a temporary order against Desiree Weeks, 33, who has been admitted to a New York psychiatric hospital. Houston is seeking a permanent restraining order against Weeks — who, according to court records, has bombarded the star with letters, greeting cards and gifts, including Valentine's Day chocolates and a four-tiered cake.

In December 1999, Weeks mailed Houston, whom she calls "Mommy," a bra and panties, pajamas for hubby Bobby, and pillows for "sister" Bobbi.

Houston's lawyer said Weeks hasn't harmed the star or her family, but the order bars Weeks from trying to make any kind of contact with them.

Houston let a previous restraining order lapse in June, believing Weeks was locked up. The singer filed to renew the order because Weeks escaped from the hospital Jan. 26 for 11 hours.
