Nick Carter, 43, took to Instagram on Saturday to share his first post since his sister Bobbie Jean Carter died at the age of 41. The singer shared a video showing his 7-year-old son Odin Carter playing golf. He shouted, “Great shot!” after each swing. The little boy wore a gray hoodie, brown pants, and black sneakers as he took part in the sport.
“Cherishing these moments,” Nick captioned the clip. Though he did not mention Bobbie Jean, many of his fans expressed their condolences via the comments. Nick’s post came just a week after his mom,
Jane Cart announced Bobbie Jean’s death. She said at the time, “I’m in shock after learning of the sudden loss of my daughter Bobbie Jean. I will need some time to process this terrible reality for the third consecutive time.” “However deeply a mother or father feels about the loss a child has, the pain of a youngster at the loss of a parent is much more intense. 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.”
Although Bobbie Jean’s cause of death has yet to be revealed, multiple sources told PEOPLE they believe she went into cardiac arrest before being found unresponsive in her Florida home. The death of Bobbie Jean Carter marks the fourth death within the Carter family. Nick’s sister, Leslie Carter, died of an overdose at the age of 25 in 2012, his father, Robert Carter, died of an apparent heart attack at the age of 65 in 2017, and his brother, Aaron Carter, died of drowning at the age of 34 in 2022. Leslie, Robert, and Aaron are all survived by Jane, Nick, Nick’s sister Angel Carter, Nick’s half-siblings, Virginia Marie Carter and Kaden Brent Carter, and his step-sibling, Taelyn Dobson.
