Bobbi Kristina Brown's longtime boyfriend Nick Gordon has been placed on 'suicide watch' by close family and friends who fear he'll take his own life now that she's passed away.
HollywoodLife exclusively reported Sunday night that the 25-year-old is inconsolable over the death of the 22-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown
Nick Gordon, who was banned from seeing her by the Brown and Houston families insists that she might have woken up if she had had the chance to hear his voice.
“Nick is on suicide watch. 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,” a source tells the publication.

Gordon was a close family friend who came to live in the Houston household at 12 years old, becoming a big brother figure to Bobbi Kristina Brown. In October 2012, nine months after Whitney Houston died from accidental drowning in a hotel bathtub, Brown and Gordon announced their engagement.
However, earlier this month he was served with a $10 million lawsuit by Bobbi Kristina's conservators, accused of both physically assaulting her and stealing thousands of dollars of cash.
He is also being investigated by American police over Bobbi Kristina being found unconscious at the house they shared in Atlanta on January 31.
Nick and their friend Max Lomas attempted to revive her at the scene but after being rushed to the nearby North Fulton Hospital where Bobbi Kristina was placed in an induced coma.

The young woman had been in a coma for almost seven months and had been moved to an Atlanta-area hospice in June after doctors said there was no hope of recovery.
The family issued a statement confirming Bobbi Kristina's death which said: "Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away Sunday, 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."
