Bobbie Jean Carter's daughter Bella, eight, is staying with her and Nick Carter's mother following her shock passing three days earlier
Bobbie Jean Carter's daughter, Bella, is staying with her and Nick Carter's mother, Jane Schneck, after her tragic passing at the age of 41 three days earlier.
A source from the Carter family informed People that the eight-year-old is currently with her grandmother following Bobbie's death.
The sister of the late Aaron Carter and Nick Carter was found dead on Saturday in her Florida home, although the cause of death remains unclear.
Her family, however, believes that the House Of Carter star went into cardiac arrest while inside the house.
According to the outlet, the insider also confirmed Bobbie will be buried in her home state of Florida.

Jane spoke about her heartbreaking loss in a statement to TMZ when the news of her daughter's passing came to light.
'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.'
'When I am able to think clearly, I’ll release a fuller statement; but until then I would request to be left to grieve in private.'
She added: 'However deeply a parent feels the loss of a child, the suffering of a young child at the loss of a parent must be much greater.'
'So, I would ask the sympathetic to say a prayer for my precious eight year old granddaughter Bella, who previously lost her father and is now also left without her mother.'
Fans may know Bobbie Jean from her appearance in the reality show House of Carters, which aired in 2006.
She, like her late brother Aaron and late sister Leslie, struggled with substance abuse.
Aaron died from an accidental drowning in November 2022 at his home in Lancaster, California, caused after his inhaling difluoroethane and taking alprazolam, the generic form of brand-name Xanax. He was 34.

Leslie died of a drug overdose at age 25 in 2012 which was caused by a toxic combination of prescription medications.
In June, Bobbie was arrested on a shoplifting charge for an incident at Hobby Lobby and was put on a suicide watch after threatening to kill herself.
Investigators discovered she was in possession of fentanyl, potent synthetic opioid drug similar to morphine but 50 to 100 times more powerful.
If Bobbie Jean did die of a heart attack as her family reportedly believes, her drug use could have contributed to it, according to the National Library of Medicine.
Aaron's team exclusively told DailyMail.com in a statement that it has been a year of 'such loss and tragedy' for the family.
'We know Aaron is in heaven with his sisters and reunited. On behalf of beloved Aaron Carter, his team sends condolences to his servings siblings, mother and extended family.'
'This year has definitely been one with such loss and tragedy. May you be filled with love and comfort from supporting fans and friends through this tough time.'
'You are not alone. We know Aaron is in heaven with his sisters and reunited. May they rest in peace.'
