Aaron Carter is being remembered by his loved ones.
On Sunday, fiancée Melanie Martin shared snaps from a holiday brunch where she was surrounded by family and their 13-month-old son Prince, focusing an ornament of two angel wings in the shape of a heart with Aaron’s name in the middle.
“We can no longer see you with our eyes but we can feel you in our heart forever 🦋💕 .”Love your mini-me and hunni💔🎄❤️,” she wrote in the caption.
Martin also decorated her food table with a small angel figurine and filled the home with red decor, including bows, holiday poinsettias, and gifts with red wrapping paper.
She and Carter began dating in early 2020 and announced their engagement that June. Following their engagement announcement, their relationship was on and off in the following months. Their exact relationship status at the time of Carter’s death at 34 in November is unclear.
