LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Hilary Duff was spotted pumping gas in Los Angeles looking downcast after the tragic passing of her ex-boyfriend, Aaron Carter.

When the death of Aaron Carter, 34 was confirmed, the actress shared a gut-wrenching Instagram post mourning the loss of her ex-boyfriend. "I am deeply sorry that life was so hard and that you had to struggle in front of the whole world," the actress and singer captioned an Instagram post. "You had a charm that was absolutely effervescent. Boy, did my teenage self love you deeply," she added. "Sending love to your family at this time. Rest easy."

While Duff was still married to ex-husband Mike Comrie and was expecting her first child in 2012, Carter told Fox News that he would "always" love her.  "I'm really happy for her that she's in a successful relationship and that she's going to have a baby," Carter said. "Sometimes I think to myself, maybe that could have been me, but it is what it is." He added, "She knows I will always love her."

In 2014, Carter reaffirmed his devotion, telling Entertainment Tonight that he would "never, ever give up on Hilary." In reaction, Duff admitted in an interview with BuzzFeed that same year that she wasn't entirely sure how to feel. "I don't know how I feel," she said. "I mean, that was so long ago, and obviously I'm still married, and I have a baby and we kind of just... don't know each other."

Carter dated Duff in 2001, and made a guest appearance in an episode of Lizzie McGuire. Eventually, the couple broke up in 2004, and Duff is currently wed to singer and record producer Matthew Koma, with whom she has two kids. Carter lived with his 11-month-old son, who he had with his ex-fiancée Melanie Martin.
