Bobbi Kristina Brown has died at the age of 22.
The only daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown passed away at Peachtree Christian Hospice near Atlanta, Georgia after being moved there in late June. She was surrounded by family and friends at the time of her death.
The Houston family said in a statement:
- "Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God. We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months."
Brown was found facedown in her bathtub on January 31, and two days after the accident she was put on life support. In February doctors performed a tracheotomy on the aspiring singer, and a week after that she was taken off life support, but just a day later she was hooked back up after suffering several seizures.
In April Brown's grandmother Cissy Houston chatted with Entertainment Tonight and revealed that Bobbi Kristina was "not progressing at all." Houston added, "She's not gone yet, but you know, whatever the Lord decides, I'm ready for her ... I have nothing to do with that. That's His job. It's His territory, you know? And I understand it."
Shortly after Bobbi Kristina was put on life support, her father Bobby said in a statement, "We are asking you to honor our request for privacy during this difficult time. We are currently investigating the events that led to [her] hospitalization." Bobby made a point of telling the press that his daughter was not married to partner Nick Gordon, who is still reportedly at the center of the criminal investigation.
RIP.
