Nick Carter is opening up about the death of his brother Aaron, almost exactly one year after the tragic event happened.

“It’s still unbelievable to me,” Nick told E! News. “I’m still processing the whole situation and trying to make sense of it—because it hasn’t. But I’m hoping that one day I can make sense of it all.”

Nick talked about how he’s coping from the tragedy.

“My children are my everything,” he explained. “If I lost everything—if I wasn’t a Backstreet Boy anymore, if I didn’t have the opportunity to still perform for people and entertain them—as long as they still had my kids and still had my family, I’d be OK. All this stuff on the outside doesn’t matter to me.”

Nick says his kids are what he focuses on. “Being present with my children, listening to them, parent-teacher conferences, driving them to school, taking them to Halloweens and being there when they want to trick-or-treat,” he added.

Nick also talked about the subject back in August.
