After the sudden death of 28-year-old Bobby Brown Jr., his father, Bobby Brown, has no words. He is "devastated".

Bobby Brown Jr., the 28-year-old son of the US singer Bobby Brown (51), died completely unexpected. Whitney Houston's ex-husband (1963-2012) has now made his first statement on the death of his son. The US portal "TMZ" quoted him as saying: "Please pray for my family. The loss of my son at this point in our life has devastated my family. I have no words to explain the pain."

Bobby Brown Jr. was found dead in his apartment, Los Angeles police confirmed. The cause of death is still unclear, but according to "TMZ" the police have ruled out external interference. No drugs are said to have been found on him either. "TMZ" also reports, citing the family, that the 28-year-old had flu-like symptoms in the days before his death. However, according to an unspecified source, he should not have been infected with the corona virus.

Landon Brown (34), the dead man's brother, expresses his grief via Instagram. After a black and white picture of his brother, he also published a video in which they both sing Justin Bieber's (26) song "Love Yourself". "Everything hurts, King …" he wrote.

Bobby Brown has to cope with the loss of a second child. His daughter Bobbi Kristina (1993-2015), the only child he had with the late Whitney Houston, died in 2015 at the age of 22.
