Aaron Carter has clarified his comments about coming out as bisexual.

Carter, known for tracks like Aaron’s Party, spoke about growing up in the entertainment industry while discovering his sexuality in a heartfelt Facebook post last summer.

The ’90s kid pop singer revealed that he was attracted to both men and women in the emotional post.

Just a day after the post, reps confirmed that he had split from girlfriend of one year, Madison Parker.

In a recent interview, Carter put to rest the speculation about his bisexuality and what that meant for his future dating plans.

Speaking to HollywoodLife, the singer said whilst he finds both men and women attractive, he plans to settle down with a woman.

“I can find men and women attractive, but when it comes down to it, I think it was a little misconstrued,” he said.

“I see myself being with a woman and having kids. I want to have a family.”

Carter has previously spoken out about this, telling TMZ: “When it comes down to it, really, I had an experience when I was 17 with a guy, but now as an almost 30-year-old man, I’m going to be pursuing relationships with women.”

However, the pop star has said that he ‘doesn’t have a problem’ with having a relationship with a man.

“Who know what the future has to bring, whether it’s a relationship with a guy, I don’t have a problem with that,” he said on the LGBTQ&A podcast last year.
