Early life and family
Carter was born in Jamestown, New York, where his parents Jane Elizabeth (née Spaulding) and Robert Gene Carter owned a bar called the Yankee Rebel. Several years later, the family moved to Ruskin, Florida and managed a retirement home, Garden Villa Retirement Home, where they added his younger siblings to their family. His siblings are Bobbie Jean Carter (born January 12, 1982); Leslie Barbara Carter (born June 6, 1986); and twins Aaron Carter and Angel Charisma Carter (born December 7, 1987). Carter also has an older half-sister, Virginia Marie Carter (born October 16, 1972) from his father's first marriage, a half-brother Kaden Brent Carter (born June 7, 2005), and a stepsister, Taelyn Carter from his father's third marriage. His parents divorced in 2003 and his father remarried in 2004 to Ginger Elrod.
The family has had a number of fractions over the years. In 2003, Aaron alleged that his mother, Jane, had removed more than $100,000 from his bank account without permission. In 2004, Jane Carter was arrested and charged with battery for assaulting her ex-husband's girlfriend (whom he later married), Ginger Elrod.
