Nick Gordon has passed away at the age of 30.
The ex-boyfriend of Bobbi Kristina Brown died from a drug overdose, People reports.
His death comes three years after he was found liable in Whitney Houston‘s daughter Bobbi‘s wrongful death case.
“We are devastated by the loss of my beautiful brother,” Nick’s brother Jack Walker Jr. told the outlet. “He leaves a void in the hearts of my family and his friends. Nick’s battle in life was not an easy one. I will be forever grateful that my God afforded a small moment at the very end of Nick’s life, and I was able to hold his hand as he journeyed on.”
The Daily Mail reports that Nick Gordon suffered multiple heart attacks on New Year’s Day and was taken to the Intensive Care Unit at Altamonte Springs Hospital, where he died.
“GOD WHY I DID I HAVE TO LOSE MY BROTHER ON NEW YEARS … All I can do is cry,” Jack also wrote on Facebook.
