Brown, who battled many of the same demons as her seven-time Grammy-winning parent, died at Peachtree Christian Hospice in Duluth, Ga., almost six months after she was found unconscious in a water-filled bathtub at her home on Jan. 31, the Houston family told Entertainment Tonight.
"She is finally at peace in the arms of God," the family said in statement. "We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months."

Family members, including her gospel star grandmother Cissy Houston, spent months praying for a miracle before surrendering to the inevitable and moving Bobbi Kristina to hospice care on June 24.

Bobbi Kristina, shown in a 2004 image, was the only child of Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown.
The tub mishap occurred just 11 days before the third anniversary of her platinum-selling mom’s drug-addled bathtub drowning on Feb. 11, 2012.
The shocking death of her 48-year-old mega-star mom sent Bobbi Kristina into a spiral of depression, and she struggled with a drinking problem in the ensuing months.
The devastated daughter was also hospitalized for stress and anxiety within days of the passing.
A new book, “Whitney & Kristina,” claimed her problems predated the beloved singer’s sudden death: Bobbi was placed in a psychiatric hospital before her 15th birthday for trying to slash her wrists and stab her mother.

The teen also landed in drug rehab before a planned 18th birthday bash after photos surfaced of Bobbi snorting cocaine.
The aspiring singer/actress — who marked her 22nd birthday while in a coma on March 4 — became the subject of family in-fighting during her time in medical limbo.
Her court-appointed conservator filed a lawsuit charging her boyfriend Nick Gordon fought with Bobbi Kristina before she was discovered in the bathtub “with her mouth swollen and (a) tooth knocked out.”
Gordon also looted Brown’s bank account of more than $11,000 as she remained unconscious in a hospital bed, the lawsuit alleged.

Famed singer Whitney Houston's tragic death in a bathtub more than three years ago turned out to mirror her daughter's demise at the age of 22.
The Roswell, Ga., police mounted a criminal investigation into the case, but no charges were ever brought. Police initially said that Gordon performed CPR and saved his girlfriend’s life after she was found in the tub.
Her aunt Leolah Brown, the sister of dad Bobby, wrote in a March Facebook post that Gordon was “under investigation for the attempted murder of my niece.”
There were reports that Gordon and Bobbi were married, but the wedding rumors were refuted after her death. The two met when Whitney Houston took Gordon in as her own “adopted son” to help out a friend.
And her hard-living dad Bobby Brown filed a recent lawsuit to take control of his comatose daughter’s estate, a move that could win him control of Bobbi’s multi-million dollar fortune.

He and his daughter shared a difficult relationship, and sometimes went for months without speaking.
Bobbi Kristina spent a life in the spotlight almost from her 1993 birth, becoming a regular on the reality series “Being Bobby Brown” alongside her mother and father.
Bobbi “has had cameras following her since she was born,” her aunt Pat Houston once said.

She was the only child of the rocky 15-year marriage between Houston and Brown — with Whitney winning custody of their daughter when the two divorced.

Bobbi, shown performing with her mother in Central Park in 2009, had struggled with Whitney's untimely death in the months before she was found unconscious in a water-filled bathtub.
Life was tumultuous for the little girl with the two volatile, chart-topping parents. She joined Houston for a live Central Park duet of “Your Love Is My Love” in 2009, and the mother and daughter became best friends.
She had designs on her own music career, and was planning a Los Angeles recording studio visit in the days before she went into a coma.
Bobbi Kristina was destroyed by Houston's drowning in a Beverly Hills bathtub after ingesting a cocktail of prescription sedatives.
She disappeared for hours after her mom’s funeral, with one report — denied by her family — that she was using drugs immediately following the emotional New Jersey service.

Bobbi Kristina recounted in a 2012 interview with Oprah Winfrey that Whitney Houston still spoke with her from beyond the grave.
“She’s always with me, I can always feel her,” she said. “I can still sit there and I can still laugh with her ... I can still talk to her.”
Her subsequent appearance on another reality show, “The Houstons: On Our Own,” raised questions about her hard drinking in the wake of the tragedy.
