As TMZ first reported on Friday, citing a local law enforcement source, Max Lomas was staying with a friend in Mississippi on Wednesday and went to use the bathroom.
As time passed and Lomas failed to emerge, the friend became concerned for his welfare and entered the bathroom, only to find the young man lying unresponsive on the floor.
A syringe was reportedly found next to his limp body.
Lomas was rushed to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Lomas, who had a troubled past involving drug and gun charges, made national headlines three years ago when on January 31, 2015, he found Bobbi Kristina in the bathroom of the Roswell, Georgia, home that he shared with the 22-year-old and her husband, Nick Gordon.
Lomas, who dated Bobbi Kristina when they were teenagers and stayed friends with her and Gordon, later told People magazine that she was not breathing when he found her.
He said he called 911 as as hysterical Gordon performed CPR on his wife in an attempt to revive her.
Lomas, then aged 24, also revealed that Bobbi Kristina and her husband had gotten into a heated argument in the hours before she ended up in the tub over his alleged dalliance with a stripper.
'I knocked on the door, and that is when I see her floating in the water,' Lomas told the magazine. 'I pull her out - the water is freezing - and lay her on her back. She wasn't breathing.'
Lomas admitted he was doing drugs that evening and claimed that both Bobbi Kristina and her husband were 'all bad into drugs.'
Whitney Houston's daughter passed away on July 26, 2015, after spending months in a coma.
Three years prior, her legendary mother was found dead in a bathtub at a Beverly Hills Hotel. Coroner’s officials ruled the singer's death accidental and said heart disease and cocaine were contributing factors.
In April 2016, a judge unsealed Bobbi Kristina's autopsy report, which showed that her face being immersed in water, along with drug intoxication, led to her death.
