Two days after Aaron was found unresponsive in his Palmdale, Calif. home, Melanie shared a heartbreaking message about her future with their son.
“I only wish I had more people to help me with him,” she told People in a Nov. 7 statement. “I will now be raising our son as a single mother and this is the worst day of my life, but I have to be strong for our son.”
She continued, “My heart is completely broken over the passing of my fiancé Aaron. I knew he was struggling, and I tried everything to help him.”
Melanie then noted that despite her efforts, she was unable to breakthrough to Aaron in the way she wanted to.
“He has a very independent and strong personality,” she explained, “and I couldn’t help him in the way I felt he needed it.”
