Carter and Martin announced Martin was expecting again in April, after revealing in June 2020 that she had suffered a miscarriage.

The couple also announced their engagement of June 2020, with Carter sharing a picture of Martin’s large diamond ring and writing: “Love wins.”

Carter has made the move into rap music in recent years, and thrown off his child star image with a number of face tattoos.
