Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of Whitney Houston, dies at 22
ATLANTA – The brief, chaotic life of Bobbi Kristina Brown was never really her own.
Born and raised in the shadow of fame and litigation, shattered by the loss of her mother, Whitney Houston, Bobbi Kristina was overwhelmed by the achievements and demons of others before she could begin to figure out who she was.
Bobbi Kristina died on Sunday at Peachtree Christian Hospice in Duluth, Georgia, about six months after she was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub in the suburban Atlanta townhome she shared with Nick Gordon, the man she called her husband. She was 22 years old.
“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,” Kristen Foster, a representative for the Houston family said Sunday.
Police said she was found Jan. 31 in the home she shared with Gordon. A police report described it as a “drowning.”
Bobbi Kristina was the only child of Houston and Bobby Brown.
She was hospitalized for months in Atlanta – eventually being placed in hospice care – after being found in a manner grimly similar to the way her megastar mother died three years earlier.
