AceShowbiz - Nick Carter's ex-girlfriend Kaya Jones opened up about the sexual assault allegations against the Backstreet Boys star on Investigation Discovery's new docuseries "Fallen Idols: Nick and Aaron Carter". In an episode, Kaya recalled reaching out to Schuman in 2017.
"Nick Carter was my boyfriend when I was in The Pussycat Dolls, and I saw the very detailed allegation about Nick and the response," Jones revealed. "It bothered me. Because it was discrediting this girl [Schuman]. So I wanted to hear what Melissa had to say."
She shared that she contacted Schuman via Twitter and offered her her number. "Kaya was so kind to me," Schuman said in the clip. "I think we must've spoken for hours. I needed someone to tell me that my life wasn't over."
Jones also recalled tweeting a warning to Carter in 2017 that read, "Don't lie Nick. I'm no longer keeping your secrets." Of Schuman, she said, "I saw a young woman trying to speak and someone who thought he had more power and authority try to shut her up. I tweeted that."
"It was my way of saying, 'Don't push it.' because he knows what I know. He knows why I left him. And so do I believe that something horrific happened to that girl? Yes. Yes I do," Jones continued.
Jones previously said in a trailer for "Fallen Idols" that she knows things about Carter "that could burn his whole house down… I know how evil he can be."
"Fallen Idols: Nick and Aaron Carter" follows the lives of Carter and his late brother Aaron Carter, including their rise to pop stardom in the late 1990s, their tragic struggles and family feud, as well as Aaron's 2022 death. The four-part docuseries premiered Monday, May 27 with the next part arriving on Tuesday, May 28.
