Nick Gordon, partner of the late Bobbi Kristina Brown, has died. He was 30.

Atlanta attorney Joe Habachy released a statement on Gordon's death, saying “it’s been truly heartbreaking to have witnessed first hand the total devastation that drug addiction has wreaked upon a group of young friends, all of whom were loved and had immense potential.”

He didn't specify Gordon's cause of death, though TMZ writes that it was a suspected drug overdose.

In 2016, Gordon was found legally liable for Brown's death. A wrongful death lawsuit alleged that Gordon “gave Bobbi Kristina a toxic cocktail rendering her unconscious and then put her face down in a tub of cold water causing her to suffer brain damage.”

An Atlanta judge said Gordon was liable, though that finding was reached because the judge said Gordon failed to meet court deadlines, so the conservator in Brown's estate won by default.

Gordon was ordered to pay $36 million in damages, but no criminal charges were filed. In April 2015, Gordon said the claims he gave her a "toxic cocktail" were "stupid."

“Think about how far-fetched and ludicrous that sounds," he said on an episode of "Dr. Phil."
