Bobby Brown breaks his silence after death of his 27 years old son Bobby Jr.

Bobby Brown has broken his silence in the wake of his 28-year-old son Bobby Brown Jr.'s death, after Bobby Jr. was found in his Encino, California home on Wednesday.

'Please keep my family in your prayers at this time,' the Every Little Thing singer said in a press statement Thursday. 'Losing my son at this point in our lives has devastated my family. There are no words to explain the pain.'

Bobby Jr.'s death came about five years after the death of his half-sister Bobbi Kristina and eight years after his stepmother Whitney Houston drowned in a bath.

Police rushed to a 'medical emergency' at his home at 1.50pm on Wednesday. It was not immediately clear Thursday what the cause of death was or who called for help but police say they do not think foul play was involved.

Bobby Jr. is the second child R&B singer Brown has lost after the death of his daughter with ex-wife Houston, Bobbi Kristina, who was found unconscious in a bathtub in 2015 at the age of 22. 

Bobby Kristina's 'adopted brother', Nick Gordon, with whom she had a controversial relationship before her death, also died in January this year.

Three years before their daughter's death, Houston drowned in a bathtub after taking cocaine and Xanax. 

Bobby Jr. is one of Brown's seven children. 

He was his second child with Kim Ward, with whom he had an 11-year relationship around the same time he was with Houston.
