Aaron Carter, a former child pop sensation, has faced a well-documented battle with drug addiction issues over the years. He is the younger brother of Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter. Aaron rose to fame in the late 1990s with hit songs like “I Want Candy” and “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It).”
Carter’s struggle with drugs became increasingly apparent in the public eye, and he candidly spoke about his addiction issues in interviews and on social media platforms. In 2017, he admitted to using a combination of drugs, including Xanax and OxyContin, and in 2020, he revealed he had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, which further complicated his mental health and substance abuse issues.
Carter’s journey through addiction has not been without controversy. He has experienced multiple run-ins with the law, including arrests related to drug possession and DUI charges.
As we reported, Aaron welcomed a baby with his ex-girlfriend, Melanie Martin. The singer’s estate will be set in a trust for his son, Prince Carter.
