The son of singer Bobby Brown has been found dead in Los Angeles aged 28, police have confirmed.

Bobby Brown Jr was discovered at his home on Wednesday, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Officers had been called to a ‘medical emergency’. There is no suspicion of foul play, police told the PA news agency.

No cause of death was available.

Brown Jr’s passing comes five years after the death of his half-sister Bobbi Kristina Brown.

Bobbi Kristina, who was the daughter of Brown and chart-topping singer Whitney Houston, passed away in 2015 in eerily similar circumstances to her mother’s death three years after.

Bobbi Kristina spent nearly six months in a coma after being found unconscious in a bathtub at her home in Georgia.

I Will Always Love You singer Houston, one of the best-selling artists of all-time, died aged 48 in 2012. She accidentally drowned in a bathtub at a hotel in Beverly Hills.

A coroner listed her drug use as a contributing factor to her death.

Brown paid an emotional tribute to his daughter Bobbi Kristina in July on the fifth anniversary of her death.

Sharing a sweet childhood photo of the aspiring actress, Bobby wrote: ‘There’s no way to explain how I feel I miss you so much little girl you stay in my heart on my mind every day daddy loves you.’ 

Brown and Houston had a tempestuous relationship and were married from 1992 to 2007.

As well as Bobby Jr and Bobbi Kristina, Brown has five other children. His hits include My Prerogative, Every Little Step and Rock Wit’cha.
