Nick Carter talks about struggles with grief and trying to make sense of Aaron's accidental death due to drug abuse, while leaning on his family for support.

• Backstreet Boys' Nick Carter is still grappling with the loss of his younger brother, Aaron Carter, nearly a year after his accidental death due to drug abuse.
• Aaron Carter, who had a history of mental health issues and drug abuse, was found drowned in his bathtub in Lancaster, California at the age of 34, in what was ruled an accidental death.
• Nick Carter reveals that despite the tensions and challenges they had faced, he and Aaron were always able to reconcile and arrive at a mutual understanding - a reality he struggles with now that Aaron is gone.
• Since the tragic loss, Nick has been heavily dependent on the support from his wife, Lauren Kitt Carter, and their three children: Odin, Saoirse, and Pearl. He emphasizes that his family is his 'everything' and maintains his groundedness amidst his fame and success.
