Nick Carter has credited his wife Lauren Kitt for helping him become a "completely different person" following his treatment for alcohol and drug abuse.
Carter previously struggled with drug and alcohol abuse and he quit partying in 2008, shortly after he met his spouse Lauren Kitt - who he married this year - and insists she has helped him avoid falling into old habits.
He told In Touch Weekly magazine: "I'm a completely different person. I'm all about health, fitness and longevity now. My wife, Lauren, helps a lot. She's someone I have to be accountable to."
Nick admits he and Lauren have started thinking about having a baby and have a date in mind to start trying.
When asked if he's planning to have children soon, he said: "Maybe the end of next year. There's no rush."
Nick previously admitted he knew his wife was 'The One' because she hates boy bands.
The singer, who previously dated Paris Hilton, said: "Lauren is everything I was looking for. When I heard she hated boy bands, I knew she was the one.
"I want my fans to see how much I love Lauren and to know that I'm in good hands."
