Aaron Carter had some choice words to say about ex Melanie Martin.
The "I Want Candy" singer, 34, took to Instagram on Sunday, February 27, to insist the mother of his four-month-old son, Prince, had been violent towards him after he served her with an order of protection last week.
"My ex had a knife in her hand so all of you saying it was car keys I'm sorry but this is not okay!" Carter captioned a photo of the incident with the alleged weapon in Martin's hand. "I'm not a liar she is a scam artist who need serious help. Give me my son back he needs to be with his father."
The alarming post came after the record producer reportedly filed for a temporary restraining order — which also reportedly stated that a minor (most likely being his son) was also in need of protection — against his former partner on Wednesday, February 23, the same day he confirmed the two called it quits again.
“My relationship has come to a point where we have to part ways. Please respect my privacy at this time. Thank you,” Carter wrote in a tweet announcing their split.
“I have no intentions on being in any relationship anytime soon," he penned in a follow-up tweet. "I’m too scarred and I can’t trust any woman. So I’m going to protect my soul and my heart at this time.”

According to documents obtained by The Blast, Carter filed for a domestic violence TRO at the Antelope Valley Courthouse in L.A. County. Only one day later, the former teen star posted a video of himself seemingly serving Martin with the protective order.
"You’ve been served. You’ve been served. See you in court. #restrainingorder," the Florida native captioned the video of himself chasing Martin with papers in his hand as she attempted to run away from him while wheeling a pink suitcase.
Carter and Martin have been in an on-again, off-again relationship since January of 2020 and got engaged later that June. The complicated couple welcomed their baby boy on November 22, 2021.
