Former American President Jimmy Carter has reportedly passed away at the age of 100.
The news comes two years after he shared with the world how he would be spending his final days in hospice care.
His son Chip Charter shared with the world that the former US President passed away at his residence in Georgia during the hours of 3:40 pm ET.
The Democrat was once a peanut farmer in his younger years but after getting older, he certainly grew wiser and managed to win the elections and serve the White House between the years 1977 to 1981. After that, he chose to dedicate the rest of his life to charity.
He also won the Nobel Peace Prize and lived his final years in Georgia. His wife was Rosalynn and she dedicated her life to taking care of him and didn’t leave his side. But her death in 2023 left the former president very lonely.
At 100, Carter is the country’s longest-lived former US president, making history.
During his four-year-long tenure as president of the country, he faced many ups and downs including an oil crisis that had many Americans lining up to get gas. Meanwhile, the Iran hostage crisis is another matter that really arose in his time, proving to be a challenge with him in power.
