Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of late singer Whitney Houston, has died aged 22, a family representative has said.<\/p>\n

Kristen Foster said she passed away on Sunday surrounded by her family and was “finally at peace in the arms of God”.<\/p>\n

Brown was discovered unresponsive in a bathtub on 31 January and placed in a medically induced coma. She never regained consciousness.<\/p>\n

She was moved to a hospice in the city of Duluth, Georgia, a month ago after her condition deteriorated.<\/p>\n

Brown was the only daughter of Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown.<\/p>\n

Whitney Houston was found dead in a hotel bath in Los Angeles in 2012.<\/p>\n

The family posted a photo of Whitney with Bobbi Kristina as a baby onwhitneyhouston.com<\/a> with the following message:<\/p>\n

“It is hard to say goodbye. On Sunday, July 26, Bobbi Kristina Brown made her transition peacefully. The family thanks everyone for their loving thoughts and prayers. As Bobbi Kristina would say: ‘The wind is behind me and the sun is in my face.'”<\/p>\n

“Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July 26 2015, surrounded by her family,” Ms Foster added.<\/p>\n

“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.”<\/p>\n

Singer Dionne Warwick, Whitney Houston’s cousin, described Bobbi Kristina as “a sweetheart”.<\/p>\n

“She will be missed, that’s for sure. She was a good girl. She was a good little girl. She really was,” she told Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live.<\/p>\n

Other stars paid tribute on Twitter, including Selma director Ava DuVernay, who said<\/a>: “She seemed to be caught in the web of celebrity upon arrival. Twenty two years. A sad end. May the sister have peace now.”<\/p>\n

The BBC’s Regan Morris in Los Angeles says Brown had dreamed of carrying on her mother’s legacy as a singer and actress, and had a few small TV roles – but her career had not yet taken off.<\/p>\n

In January, police said Brown was found face down in a bathtub in the suburban Atlanta home she shared with Nick Gordon, the man she called her husband. A police report described the incident as a “drowning”.<\/p>\n

Mr Gordon said at the time she did not appear to be breathing and lacked a pulse before emergency services arrived.<\/p>\n

Brown was placed in a medically-induced coma and has been breathing with the aid of a ventilator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
