Aaron Carter’s ashes to be spread with late sister Leslie’s in Florida
Part of Aaron Carter will be laid to rest with his late sister Leslie in the Florida Keys.
The “Aaron Party” crooner’s mother, Jane, told TMZ that the family plans to spread some of Aaron’s and Leslie’s ashes in the Florida Keys in the spring.
She also said they will save some of their ashes so they can be buried with Jane when she eventually passes.
Jane shared that Aaron’s remains are still with his twin sister, Angel, and noted that his on-again, off-again fiancée Melanie Martin won’t be present at the ceremony in the Keys.
The “I Want Candy” performer was found dead in the bathtub of his Lancaster, Calif., home on Nov. 5. He was 34.
The late pop star struggled with addiction and mental health issues throughout his life, but his manager later told Page Six that cyberbullying was a “nightmare” for Carter.
“It was nonstop. It was so relentless and, yeah, it did a number on him,” Taylor Helgeson told us.
Although Helgeson shared that he didn’t believe suicide was ever an option for Aaron, his mental health was certainly affected by online trolls.
“I wouldn’t go as far as to blame that entirely [for Carter’s death], but I watched that break him down over a long period of time,” the Big Umbrella Management executive said.
“He never chose his life … I don’t think he was given the same tools that a lot of us are to navigate life in a way that leaves room for us to live sustainable, good lives.”
At the time of his death, Aaron didn’t have a will in place.
Sources told TMZ that lawyers had advised Aaron to draw one up following the birth of his son, Prince, whom he welcomed with Martin in November 2021, but he never followed through.
Per California succession laws, Prince will likely inherit his late father’s estate since Aaron was unmarried at the time of his death. The details of Aaron’s estate remain unknown.
