What happened to Carl’s brother?

Carl had revealed that his brother struggled with mental health and addiction for many years. Opening up about his death he said, “I know everyone sees me living my best life on reality TV, and I’ll be the first to admit I have been blessed in many ways… but today I want to remove the “lens,” so to speak, by sharing something extremely personal with you.”

“A couple of weeks ago, my brother Curtis passed away after a life-long battle with mental illness and addiction. Losing my big brother is something I never could have imagined, and the sense of loss is even greater,” he added.

He continued, “My brother had an amazing sense of humor. The quotes and silly scenes in movies that we would share are still making me laugh. As children of the 90s, we both lived through the DARE campaign.”
