Bobbie Jean Carter has died at the age of 41, according to TMZ. The sister of Nick Carter and the late Aaron Carter passed away in Florida on Saturday morning, her mother, Jane Carter, told the outlet. “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,” she said.
“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 continued. “[H]owever 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.”
Bobbie Jean’s death comes just over a year after Aaron tragically passed away at the age of 34.
