US President Barack Obama is concerned over the state of Whitney Houston's daughter, Bobbi Kristina, following her mother's death.
Kristina was admitted in the hospital, the day after her mother died.
She is said to be "hysterical, exhausted and inconsolable". Family members reportedly fear that she may be suicidal, reported TMZ online.
A representative for the White House revealed that the president's "thoughts and prayers" are with the 18-year-old. "Obama's thoughts and prayers are with Whitney Houston's family, especially her daughter.
It's a tragedy to lose somebody so talented at such a young age," White House press secretary Jay Carney said in a statement.
Houston was found dead by her bodyguard in the bathtub of her luxury hotel suite at the Beverly Hilton.
The cause of death is not yet known.
