The daughter of late singer Whitney Houston, has died at the young age of 22. A family representative,Kristen Foster, announced that she passed away on Sunday surrounded by her family and was “finally at peace in the arms of God”.
Indirect allegations of foul play have been made several times, and a $40m suit for battery, assault, and fraud, among other charges being levied against her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, is already underway. Time will tell how much substance there is to those allegations.

Brown, who was discovered face down and unresponsive in a bathtub at the end of January this year was placed in a medically induced coma,and had been breathing with the aid of a ventilator, but never regained consciousness thereafter. An investigation that included toxicology results revealed a string of stimulants in her system, including Cocaine, which as well as a heart disease has been adjudged the cause of her death. That’s currently the official position,
She was moved to a Christian hospice in the city of Duluth, Georgia, a month ago after her condition plummeted to worrying lows. Houston once told television star, Oprah Winfrey, that she hoped to continue her mother’s legacy through acting and singing, though those highly held dreams would never materialize in the end.
It is a sad tale of a family rich in talent, yet one that has fallen victim to the demons of drugs and premature death.
It is always painfully sad to see individuals rise to fame, only to inadvertently throw all the benefits away and implicitly render an opportunity that eludes even the most ambitious of us, utterly futile and retrospectively perilous. The painful memory of Whitney Houston’s death was horrifying enough for our memories, and the sad tale that accompanied the life of one of America’s greatest singing talents could have been salvaged had her daughter carried on and probably even improved on her legacy. It was not to be, and if anyone besides Bobbi Kristina herself is responsible, then we sure hope they are brought to justice.

The family posted a photo of Whitney with Bobbi Kristina as a baby on Whitney houston.com saying:
“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.'”
“Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July 26 2015, surrounded by her family,” Ms Foster added.
“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.”
Bobbi Kristina is said to have made a phone cal to a friend, desperately asking for a meeting to discuss the escalating violence of her boyfriend, Nick Gordon. She never lived to see that meeting.
