Bob Kristina Brown’s ex-fiancée Nick Gordon, 30, has died of complications from drug overdose.
According to British tabloid The Daily Mail, Gordon was out celebrating on New Year’s Eve when he suffered a series of heart attacks and was rushed into intensive care unit in a Florida hospital where he was later announced dead.
Confirming his death in a Facebook post, Gordon’s brother, Junior Walker revealed he sat on his bedside when he passed away.
“I love you so much big brother,” he wrote
alongside several photos of Gordon. “I hope you heard me talking to you at your bedside. you are with me and I can feel it. I love you I love you I love you. watch over me and your nieces. shit wasn’t suppose to go like this. I talked to 6 hours before all this started you gave me my nickname Lil Wop and that Will forever be what I go by. you were my best friend and I never in a million years thought I’d be writing this for my ACE. I was there through every step. we all love you no matter what and we’ll all stay strong for you. New Years didn’t have to start like this and you just told me you HAD to see me for New Years but I’m blessed I got to talk to you last night. you will forever be my best friend nobody will ever take your place.”
Gordon, a prolific drug user, was engaged to Bobbi Kristina Brown – daughter of singers Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown — who died in 2015 aged 22 after she was found unconscious in a bathtub with a slew of drugs in her system.
Although Gordon never faced criminal charges, he was held legally responsible for her wrongful death in a civil case after her family won a $36 million civil suit against him in 2016.
