Stars Mourn Bobbi Kristina Brown: 'May U Rest in Peace With Your Mommy'
Bobbi Kristina Brown -- daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown and star of the Lifetime reality show "The Houstons: On Our Own" -- died July 26 in Georgia. She was only 22. Her death happened nearly six months after she was found face down in a bathtub at her home, and three years after her famous mother drowned in a bathtub in Beverly Hills.
"Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away Sunday, July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family," the family said in a statement. "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."
The official Facebook page for Whitney Houston posted a statement Sunday night:
It is hard to say goodbye. On Sunday, July 26, Bobbi Kristina Brown made her transition peacefully. The family thanks...

Although it wasn't a surprise to hear of Bobbi Kristina's death, since the true shock came back in January when she was hospitalized, fans and friends were still devastated by the young woman's passing. Celebrities who knew or just loved Bobbi Kristina and her family quickly shared condolences.
"She was a sweetheart," Houston's cousin, Dionne Warwick, said Sunday night on "Watch What Happens Live." "She will be missed, that's for sure. She was a good girl. She was a good little girl, that's for sure."
Peace at Last! #BobbiKristina
