We never gave up on our love and I feel like we both couldn’t live without each other.”The Bulgaria native and the “I Want Candy” singer began dating in January 2020, but they split two months later after Martin was arrested for felony domestic violence against Carter.

She was released after posting $50,000 bail.The twosome got back together in April 2020 and announced they were expecting a child, but in June of that year, the rapper revealed that his partner had suffered a pregnancy loss. “We’re gonna give it some time, let her heal and then we’re going to try again,” the Florida native said in a YouTube video at the time. “We both want that.

I gotta take care of her.”The duo — who got engaged in June 2020 — welcomed son Prince, now 10 months, in November 2021. Martin told Us that she was with their little one on Saturday, November 5, when Carter was found dead at his residence in California.“It happened so fast and I’m still in shock that I will never see his face again,” she said on Monday. “Aaron was a wonderful man and he really loved to take care of his family.
