Aaron Carter had every intention of going to Nick Carter’s wedding in April 2014, but the “I Want Candy” singer was unable to attend due to flight difficulties. “Really pissed off that I missed my brothers wedding today,” Aaron wrote in an Instagram post alongside a shot of him in a plane. “I hope he doesn’t hate me .. I tried to get there … I’m sorry bro @nickcarter #technicalProblems,” he added (via Us Weekly).
Prior to learning Nick’s wedding date, Aaron had signed up to perform at the National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade in Washington, D.C. that same day, but had scheduled a flight so he could attend the tail-end of the ceremony. “Aaron was legitimately busting his a** to make it to his brother’s wedding. He felt awful and had every intention of being there,” a rep for the singer told E! at the time.

While it appeared Aaron had every intention of trying to fit the wedding into his schedule, his relationship with Nick became fractured years earlier. Their friction dated back to Nick missing sister Leslie Carter’s funeral in 2012, as the “I’m All About You” artist revealed during a 2020 interview with VladTV. The interviewer asked Aaron if that was what drove the brothers apart. “What do you think? Would you be pissed off at your brother if he did that?” he replied. Years after Leslie’s funeral, and Nick’s wedding, the relationship between the brothers became more fraught.
