Are Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon already married?


There’s a story that Mariah Carey, 38, impulsively married Nick Cannon, 27, yestday after dating him on the sly. They’ve been friends for years but only recently started dating from what people can tell. The first stories that they were dating came out around April, and they’re said to have struck up a romance when Nick did a cameo on Mariah’s “E=MC2″ video and was promoted to director of her “Bye Bye” video.

Nick most recently was engaged to model Selita Ebanks, and they broke up in October after an engagement that lasted less than a year. Mariah is wearing the same enormous ring once seen on Ebanks’ hand.

The details on this story are vague - there is no specific location, it’s based on an unnamed source, and there is no confirmation or denial yet from either side:

A source close to Nick Cannon has confirmed exclusively to Latina.com that Cannon and Mariah Carey are married! The couple wed yesterday in a small ceremony on an island and it was “very implusive,” according to our source. The wedding was attended by a few close friends of the couple, including Da Brat.

If this is true it means these two got married after less than two months of dating, and they probably didn’t get a prenup. Nick Cannon will be a much wealthier man by the end of the year.

US Weekly reports that the updates to Mariah Carey’s nephew’s facebook status (yes I know that’s ridiculous) have him half-confirming half-denying the rumors. He said he was in the Bahamas at the time of the alleged wedding, listed his status as “witness” at one point, but then updated it to say he “can officially say that what you may or may not have read or heard is not true.”

Update: People and E! Online report that although the engagement rings look similar, Selita and Mariah have different rings that were custom designed by Nick Cannon. Selita’s engagement ring from Nick was 12 carats and made of clear diamonds while Mariah’s is 17 carats and with colored diamonds. Mariah’s is worth $2.5 million and Selita’s was probably worth 7 figures too. How does Nick Cannon have that type of money to blow on two engagement rings in just over a year?

  1. mariah is far too much in love with herself to ever make a marriage work. or rather in love with the mimi persona, with all its glittery pinks and butterflies. not sure there actually is a “real” mimi, just a carefully groomed little-girl-sexy facade. give me somebody like aretha any day. ms. franklin may burn down houses and dress rather badly for her figure, but the girl is real. she ain’t posing.

  6. Bellatrix, he is a little rapper/actor/comedian thing. He was in Drumline and Love Don’t cost a thing and had a few songs out. The only one I remember clearly is Gigolo with R Kelly.

  7. Do people really use their rings from past failed relationships to seal their new ones? I’d want my own ring, no matter how big the stone is.

    Remember Mariah’s first wedding, princess style with the zillion mile long train (or was it the veil)?
