Lohan also noted that it had been a long time since they had spoken to each other. The pair, who both found fame as child stars, dated between January 2002 and April 2003. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight earlier, Lohan stated that she still had a "lot of love" for Carter and his family. "My heart goes out to his family and may he rest in peace," the 36-year-old continued. "And God bless him... and yeah, just (a) a lot of love there."
Lohan first spoke about her relationship back in 2003 when she publically acknowledged Carter’s romance with Hilary Duff. "Aaron and I were friends. That's my past. It was, like, a few months ago, you know. He's a cool guy. We're friends. Hilary is a cute girl. I wish her the best," she told People. Back in the early 2000s, Lohan, Carter and Duff were entangled in an reported love triangle.
Duff also paid a heart-touching tribute to ‘The Aaron's House’ singer with an Instagram post on Saturday following his tragic death. "For Aaron - I'm deeply sorry that life was so hard for you and that you had to struggle in front of the whole world. You had a charm that was absolutely effervescent... boy did my teenage self love you dearly. Sending love to your family at this time. Rest easy," her Instagram post read.
Carter and Duff were barely teenagers when they dated on and off between 2001 and 2003. They were involved in a tumultuous romance, while Carter was also reportedly dating Lohan at the same time.
Carter's rep told NBC News, "We are extremely saddened and shocked to confirm the passing of Aaron Carter today. At the moment his cause of death is being investigated. We ask that you give the family time and they will have more information when available. We cannot express the outpouring of love coming in.” Carter has a son with ex-fiancee Melanie Martin, who was born in November 2021.
