Bobby Brown Jr., son of singer Bobby Brown, was found dead in his California home Wednesday, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
LAPD Public Information Officer Jeff Lee said the police responded to a medical emergency at around 1:50 p.m. to find the deceased male, later identified as Brown Jr.
“No further details were available as to the cause of death, pending a coroner’s examination,” Lee said. “But no foul play was suspected.”
Brown Jr. was following in his father’s footsteps with a music career. He was one of two children of Brown and Kim Ward. Brown Sr. was later married to singer Whitney Houston.
At the age of 13, Brown Jr. appeared on the family’s short-lived 2005 Bravo reality show called Being Bobby Brown, along with his half-sister, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
In September, Brown Jr. dropped his first music single “Say Something,” according to USA Today.
Houston was found dead on February 11, 2012, in a Beverly Hills hotel bathtub. She was the victim of an “accidental drowning brought on by heart disease and longtime cocaine abuse, as the Los Angeles coroner found weeks later,” per USA Today.
On January 31, 2015, Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of Brown Sr. and Houston, was found face down and unconscious in the bathtub of her Georgia home. She died on July 26, 2015, at the age of 22 in an Atlanta-area hospice. She was buried next to her mother in a New Jersey cemetery, according to USA Today.
Bobbi’s family blamed her ex-fiancé, Nick Gordon, who was never charged in the case. Gordon died from a heroin overdose in Seminole County on January 1, 2020, at the age of 30. The news originally published in USA Today.
