The 28-year-old son of Bobby Brown has been found dead in his Los Angeles home, the LAPD have confirmed.

Officers had been called to a “medical emergency”, with no suspicion of foul play according to police.

LAPD and firefighters responded to a medical emergency around 1:30pm at a home on the 5200 block of White Oak Avenue in Encino.

Police said they found a person not breathing and later identified the deceased as Bobby Brown Jr.

Brown Jr’s brother, Landon, shared a black-and-white photo of his late sibling to Instagram, captioning the post: “I love you forever King.”

Bobby Brown is known as the singer of hits including 'My Prerogative', 'Every Little Step' and 'Rock Wit’cha'.

Brown Jr’s tragic death follows that of his 22-year-old half-sister, Bobbi Kristina Brown, in 2015.

Bobbi Kristina was the daughter of Brown and legendary singer Whitney Houston, with Houston and her daughter dying in extremely similar circumstances only three years apart.

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

One of the best-selling artists ever, Houston died aged 48 in 2012 after accidentally drowning in a bathtub at a hotel in Beverly Hills.

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

Brown and Houston were married from 1992 to 2007 and had a turbulent relationship, according to those close to them.

As well as Bobby Jr and Bobbi Kristina, Brown has five other children.
