Aaron Carter’s Bizarre Behavior Before He Died
Aaron’s death shocked those closest to him, a source told Us Weekly. The I Want Candy singer was just 34 when he died. The late star was found dead in his California home on Saturday, November 5. According to multiple outlets, a 911 call was made at 11 a.m. local time.
The official cause of death was not revealed, but the musician struggled with his mental health. He also had a history of substance abuse.
“Those who’ve known him for years never saw Aaron like this [before],” the source disclosed.
The insider also noted that pals observed that Aaron Carter exhibited bizarre behavior. He also reportedly slurred words ahead of his death.
According to the source, close confidants “wanted him to go to rehab,” but Aaron initially put up a fight.
The source added that the Florida native’s ex-fiancee, Melanie Martin, repeatedly expressed her concerns about him. The insider revealed that she constantly tried to help him get off drugs and go to rehab.
Additionally, Melanie “reached out” to an outpatient facility on Aaron’s behalf but was unsuccessful in getting him there.
Aaron Tried To Be Better
Previous posts uploaded by the singer before his demise indicated that he wanted to get better. The 34-year-old was concerned when Melanie lost their first pregnancy. After she delivered their now 11-month-old son, Prince, an excited Aaron gushed about his experience as a first-time dad.
The Dancing With the Stars alum said:
“The person that I am today — I want to be a better version of [the person] I was the day prior to that. So tomorrow, I want to be a better version of myself than I was the day before that.”
He explained that he was hoping for and exercising peace and serenity and holding himself accountable for his shortcomings.
Aaron Carter also exhibited bizarre behavior long before his death. For example, he often spoke about thinking he would die early.
“I thought I would die by 30,” he said in 2017. “Even when I was 13, 14, I thought, ‘Oh, my God. I’m going to die.’ … I go through a lot of pain, and my pain is reflected in my music,” the ’00s star said.
Aaron Carter’s slurred words and bizarre behavior indicated that all was not well with the star. Hopefully, this unfortunate occurrence raises awareness about the dangers of drug abuse and the need for quick medical intervention.
