Leslie Carter, the sister to Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter and singer Aaron Carter, died on Tuesday in upstate New York. The aspiring singer was 25.

A spokesman for the family confirmed the news of the singer's death with Access Hollywood but provided no further details.

Our family is grieving right now and it's a private matter, the spokesperson said. We are deeply saddened for the loss of our beloved sister, daughter, and granddaughter, Leslie Carter. We request the utmost privacy during this difficult time.
