Aaron Carter's twin sister has given an extremely honest response after being asked why she thinks three of her four siblings died young.

Angel Carter Conrad is the sister of the late singer and rapper Aaron Carter and Backstreet Boys star Nick Carter.

Her twin brother Aaron died in 2022 after drowning due to the effects of taken alprazolam (a form of Xanax) and inhaling difluoroethane.

He was 34-years-old.

But he isn't the only Carter sibling to die of drug-related causes.

In 2012, Leslie Carter died from an overdose aged 25.

And, just last year, Bobbi Jean Carter died aged 41 of 'intoxication due to the combined effects of fentanyl and methamphetamine.'

In a candid conversation with Gayle King on CBS Mornings, Angel was brutally honest about why she thinks so many of her siblings have died young.

When King asked her about her late siblings, she said: "There's certainly a generational dysfunction issue here that comes comes along with it, but as far as growing up, there was a time where we were a really close family. There was a lot of love. But there was a lot of chaos going on at the same time.

"Just fighting. My parents were just fighting all the time. Just dysfunction in the home. No boundaries. No stability. No one to talk to. It just felt like, if I had an issue going on I really couldn't have my parents to lean on to."

She also noted that fame added to the dysfunction in her family.

Nick found global success with the Backstreet Boys in the 1990s and Aaron's single 'I Want Candy' was a smash hit in 2000.

"I think it changed everything, honestly," she said.

"Nick has been in Backstreet Boys since I was four or five years old. So, a really long time. We were a family that had no money. We were from upstate New York. My parents were poor. And they had never seen anything like this before.

"So, once the money started coming in, it just changed the dynamic because money became the moving force."

Angel has previously revealed that her family had 'tried everything' to help her brother Aaron leading up to his tragic death, but eventually lost hope.

Now, she hopes to break the pattern with her own child and give them the innocence her brother never had.

"Aaron did not have his innocence," she said. "He was working like an adult from a very young age. And he just wanted to be home."
