Nick Carter has endured a lot of tragedy in the past two years. In December 2020, the Backstreet Boys singer lost his sister Bobby Jean Carter, and just a year before that, he lost his brother Aaron in similar circumstances. Bobby Jean was just 41 when she was found unresponsive in the bathroom of her home in Florida.
Nick has now spoken out for the first time since her death, saying he is "heartbroken". He shared a photo of him and Bobby Jean as children on social media, writing "It may take a lifetime to fully process the loss my family has endured over the years - most recently, with the sudden passing of our sister Bobbie Jean. I am completely heartbroken. Thank you for all your love and kind words. We are reminded again that life is precious, fleeting and to cherish the time we have with the ones we love. I know she is finally at peace with God. I love you BJ".
Friends and fans quickly took to the comments section to comfort the grieving Nick, showing an outpouring of support.
Nick and Aaron had a good relationship growing up, but it ended in a complicated one. In 2019 Nick had filed a restraining order against Aaron after witnessing ‘alarming behaviour’. TMZ reported that Bobby Jean was on probation for cocaine possession at the time of her death following an arrest in June.
After Bobby Jean's death, various members of the Carter family paid tribute to her. Angel, 36, wrote: "You had a great sense of humor, and a lively spirit. Growing up, I was your baby, and you were my best friend. Life wasn’t fair to you, that I know. Sometimes, it feels like you didn’t have a shot, no matter what". Her mother, Jane Carter, said: ‘I am in shock from learning of the sudden death of my daughter, Bobbie Jean and I will need time to process the terrible reality of this happening for the third time".
Nick found fame in the 1990s as a member of the Backstreet Boys, but has been accused of sexual assault by two women. He has denied all claims, and in February filed countersuits against both of the women, claiming they were ‘opportunists’ trying to ‘destroy innocent lives’.
Nick's family tragedies have left him feeling heartbroken, and he knows it will take a lifetime to process the pain. He has the full support of his fans, who are sending him their love and prayers.
