The daughter of Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston had been in a coma since January, but today passed away at a hospice which she was transferred to on June 24.
A spokesperson said: "Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away July, 26 2015, surrounded by her family.
She is finally at peace in the arms of God.
"We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months."

Since then there has been much speculation as to whether her condition had improved or not as she remained on life support.

She appeared alongside both parents in 2005 on the Bravo reality show Being Bobby Brown, which captured her parents fighting, swearing and appearing in court.
Years earlier, Houston expressly left Bobby Brown out of her will, putting everything in a trust "for the benefit of her children and more remote descendants".
After their divorce in 2007, the I Wanna Dance with Somebody singer kept custody of Bobbi Kristina and raised her alongside Mr Gordon, an orphan three years older than her daughter.

Houston's assistant found the singer's lifeless body face-down in a foot of water in her bathtub at the Beverly Hills Hotel just before the Grammy Awards in 2012.
Authorities found prescription drugs in the suite, and evidence of heart disease and cocaine in her body, but decided it was an accidental drowning.
Bobbi Kristina, then 18, was at the hotel and became so hysterical she had to be taken to hospital.
She and Mr Gordon then went public with their romance, posting defiant messages online after the tabloids accused them of incest.

By January last year, the young couple who grew up as brother and sister were sharing a home and calling themselves husband and wife.
They posted images of their hands wearing wedding rings, with the caption “happily married” and got identical "WH" tattoos with flying doves on their wrists.
Relations between Mr Gordon and some relatives soured this year while Bobbi Kristina was in hospital.
Despite Bobbi and Nick's claims to have wed in 2014, Bobby swiftly shut down their marriage in a message via his lawyers back in February.
The family proceeded to place full responsibilty on Nick for the condiiton of Krissy, as she was affectionatle known by her loved ones, and placed protective order barring him from being within 200 feet of Pat Houston, Bobbi Kristina's aunt.
A feud erupted over whether he could visit Bobbi Kristina while she was in hospital.
On June 24, Bobbi Kristina's court-appointed representative sued Mr Gordon, accusing him of misrepresenting his relationship with Bobbi Kristina.
The complaint accused him of being violent toward her and taking more than £7,100 from her account while she was in a medically induced coma.
The lawsuit accused him of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, unjust enrichment and conversion.
Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard said he and his office are interested in reviewing the investigative file to decide whether any charges will be filed.
Bobbi Kristina's money was in a trust, designed to keep creditors and predators from taking advantage of her.
Her grandmother, Cissy Houston, and Pat Houston, eventually took over control of the trust and then took Bobbi Kristina to court to protect the estate.

Sources tell HollywoodLife.com: "He is out of control with regret and sadness. He keeps saying that if only [Bobbi Kristina] had heard his voice, things would have been different. She may have lived."
Soon after Bobbi's admission to hospital, Nick appeared on a Dr. Phil special where the TV therapist staged an intervention with him after admitting he'd been abusing Xanax and alcohol.
He then successfully completed a brief stint in a rehabilitation centre.
