Why Aaron Carter's Twin Sister Thinks 3 of Her 4 Siblings Died Young

Angel Carter is opening up about life since the death of three of her siblings, Leslie, Bobbie Jean and Aaron Carter. In a new interview with Gayle King on 'CBS Mornings,' Angel talks about growing up with them and their big brother, Nick Carter, including what might have led the three of them down the wrong path. Leslie died in 2012 at the age of 25, Aaron in 2022 at the age 34 and Bobby Jean died in 2023 at age 41. Angel explains why she thinks they all died at a young age

I can't imagine out of 5 siblings 3 are gone. I hope her and Nick stay close

Many parents don’t realize how toxic it is to children to see them constantly fighting. You’re raising very broken adults and you don’t even know it.

Broke my heart when aaron passed away. He struggled and tried to keep going. As someone who has mental health issues i understand. Taking mental health days are important for everyone.

Sounds like the same millennial story in entertainment. They didn't have emotionally mature parents to help them navigate. The parents saw dollar signs and pushed their kids to work without boundaries or rest.

Their dad died in 2017 as well, and he had an older daughter Ginger (from a previous wife) who died in 2023 right before Bobbie Jean did.

She’s beautiful. God bless that broken family❤

Nick escaped the same fate only because of his brothers in the Backstreet Boys. Thank god for them.

Three of five GONE? I would have a very hard time pushing through as a parent. 💔

The Body Keeps Score! Childhood trauma needs to end

Angel looks like she knew there was nothing she could do.

What society and the media often get wrong is blaming drugs and alcohol for a person’s downfall in every situation, when often times drugs and alcohol are the symptoms of greater problems.

[DisneyWitch]

I had, unfortunately, a similar childhood as the Carter kids did minus the fame. My parents fought constantly that when they finally got divorced TWO years ago, I was elated. There was always lack of boundaries and respect to one another that one of my siblings still have issues with it to this day. I have another sibling that is a recovering alcoholic and opiate user that took him a long time to snap out of it. I have been in therapy and have been taking medication since 2017 for my anxiety and depression and to be totally honest saved my life. I felt forced to deal with a lot of chaos that led me to be a perfectionist, people pleaser, and having ZERO self respect to the point that led me to thinking I was better off dead. Children should never have to deal with chaos when their only priority should be just being a kid.

I can’t believe that Nick and Angel are the only of the Carter 5 that are left. So sad. Also, Angel is so beautiful. She really is an angel 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

If it weren’t for Nick being in the Backstreet Boys none of them would have had anything. He tried to hold the family together when he was so young. Give him some credit. He tried.

3 siblings and a father gone within 11 years

[Kristie]

There’s definitely a Carter family curse. It’s tragic that Angel and Nick are the only ones left. 💔

[IslanderloverBKK]

Their parents pimped them out, most especially Aaron! It's true, all about money but didn't care of their kids overall being.

[florashinguard]

Aaron accused Nick of abusing the first sister who died. Nick has also had a lot of allegations against him recently. There’s definitely a lot being left unsaid, especially in terms of generational physical/emotional/sexual abuse within this family.

I've been hoping 'Recovery' would be released! I fell in love with a live video of it years ago. Sad Aaron couldn't see his way to recovery and stability and happiness. RIP AC. I sometimes like to imagine a healthy adult life for him- as a happy, fulfilled, honest, compassionate man

[MochiColorsZanos]

This is so sad. I wonder if Nick feels a lot of guilt around Aaron's death knowing how badly they used to fight.
