New Documentary Reveals Harrowing Details of Aaron Carter's Final Years

‘The Carters,’ premiering April 15 on Paramount+, uncovers the escalation of Aaron Carter’s struggles with mental health, substance abuse, and violent behavior, as well as the Carter family's efforts to intervene.

Aaron Carter's behavior became increasingly erratic and violent after his siblings, Nick and Angel Carter, filed a restraining order against him in 2019 due to alarming threats.
The documentary reveals that Aaron had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and had expressed disturbing thoughts about harming family members.
Family members describe a terrifying incident in which Aaron drove to Nick Carter's home with a gun, prompting fears for their safety and a police intervention.
Aaron Carter's death in November 2022, ruled an accidental drowning, was influenced by substance use and mental health challenges, according to the coroner's report.
The Carter family hopes the documentary will raise awareness about mental health issues, particularly among children, and shed light on the personal toll of fame and addiction.
