Hundreds of people have gathered with candles and torches to pray for Whitney Houston’s daughter, who is fighting for her life in hospital.<\/p>\n

The event, called Shining a Light for Healing for Bobbi Kristina Brown, was held at the Riverdale Town Centre amphitheatre in Georgia.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old remains in care after being found unconscious in the bath at her home.<\/p>\n

She was the only offspring of singers Bobby Brown and Houston.<\/p>\n

Her mother, whose hits included I Will Always Love You and How WIll I Know, died two years ago in Los Angeles. She was also found unresponsive in a bathtub, at the age of 48.<\/p>\n

Several speakers addressed the struggles and scrutiny Brown and her family had faced in recent years.<\/p>\n

“They bleed and hurt like us,” Riverdale mayor Wynn-Dixon said.<\/p>\n

Police were called to Brown’s home in suburban Atlanta on 31 January, in response to a “drowning”.<\/p>\n

A police official told a local broadcaster officials had not found any drugs or prescription medications in the home.<\/p>\n

Following the incident, Brown’s relatives said she was “fighting for her life” and “surrounded by immediate family”.<\/p>\n

“We are asking you to honour our request for privacy during this difficult time.”<\/p>\n
