The Loss of a Carter
The brothers’ personal demons aren’t the only tragedy in the Carter family. In 2012, the sudden demise of their sister Leslie added to the pain and misery. The 25-year-old passed away due to substance abuse. What’s even more devastating is that her big brother Nick didn’t even show up to the funeral.
Apparently, Nick’s reason for his absence was his ongoing feud with his parents. The circumstances must have been dreadful for him to miss his own sibling’s burial. Nick claimed his family blamed him for being partially responsible for her death. Nick later admitted that finding out about his sister’s death was the most horrific news he had ever received.
