The Backstreet Boys member spoke with 'Entertainment Tonight' about his grief over his younger brother Aaron's death at 34.

Singer Nick Carter recently opened up to Entertainment Tonight about the death of his brother, singer and producer Aaron Carter.

Aaron Carter was found dead in his bathtub last November. An autopsy report showed that he had drowned after taking a generic form of Xanax and a chemical called diflouroethane, which is found in cans of compressed air.


Earlier this year, Nick Carter held a benefit concert and released a song to commemorate his late sibling. He only recently talked to Entertainment Tonight in more detail about how he and his family are coping with Aaron's loss.

“It is still something that we are still processing, to this day. I don’t think we will ever really get over it. It’s been a lot for us, and we are finding ways to try and take a really tragic situation in our family and do something with it.”

The brothers had a complicated relationship, as Nick steered more towards a family-man path and Aaron spiraled into addiction before his death.

Nick Carter said that this relationship was particularly difficult after Aaron's death, because he had held out hope that Aaron would "somehow, someday want to walk a healthy path.”

Reactions to Nick's interview were mostly supportive.



Some fans commented on the new video that Nick will be releasing, 'Superman.'



And others took a moment to remember Aaron.

As can be expected, many folks wrote about the grief process.

Everyone seemed optimistic of Nick's future in life and music.

Nick Carter's new solo tour "Who I Am," his first since 2016, will begin in the fall.

Dr. Oz Slammed For Tone Deaf Health Advice For Americans On Medicaid And Medicare

Dr. Mehmet Oz—now the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services—was criticized after he offered Americans unsolicited health advice during a Fox News appearance, saying that Americans shouldn't "eat carrot cake" as millions face cuts to their government-funded health insurance.

Under the bill, individuals earning just above the federal poverty line would be required to start paying out of pocket for certain Medicaid services, such as doctor visits and lab tests.

California Democratic Senator Adam Schiff fired back at President Donald Trump after Trump accused Schiff of "possible mortgage fraud" in a Truth Social post—prompting Schiff to point out that Trump's attack is another attempt to take attention away from Trump's association with the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump, without citing evidence, said Fannie Mae’s financial crimes division found that Schiff had a “sustained pattern of possible Mortgage Fraud" that involved misstating which home Schiff used as a primary residence, allowing him to secure a cheaper mortgage.
