Mariah Carey & Nick will ‘never reconcile,’ but they are getting along… for now

wenn21648655

Here are some photos of Nick Cannon leaving the Manhattan apartment he used to share with Mariah Carey. Most reports claim that Mariah stayed in the apartment and Nick got a separate place. We could assume that he stopped by his old apartment to see his children, or perhaps check in on Ol’ Crazy Mimi and talk about their impending divorce. TMZ says that Nick and Mariah have actually been getting along a lot better now that they’re not pretending everything is fine:

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are actually getting along — way better than when they were together and loathed each other — but TMZ has learned there is NO chance of a reconciliation.

TMZ first reported … the divorce is a “done deal” and the couple has been separated since May. We’re told they are not only on good terms — primarily for the sake of their kids — they even went to dinner Friday in Tribeca and shockingly no one even noticed.

It’s a big improvement from 6 months ago, when there was so much contempt they literally could not be in the same room together.

We’re told it’s all about the kids … they’re both committed to making the divorce as easy as possible on them. But — let’s just say one side tells us — they will NEVER get back together.

[From TMZ]

I don’t understand why everyone always assumes that a couple would or could get back together after they’ve already gone through the trouble of announcing their split. Most estranged couples – especially those with kids – get along a lot better once they’re not living under the same roof and when there’s no pressure to keep up happy-couple appearances. So, of course Mariah and Nick are getting along better these days. They don’t have to deal with one another’s bulls—t 24-7 anymore. Think of Goop and Chris Martin – they too seemed so much happier when they finally gave up the ghost.

Meanwhile, Nick’s father has been talking to several media outlets, telling all about his son’s marriage. It’s pretty off-side and James Cannon seems… I don’t know. He should let Nick and Mariah figure their stuff out without chiming in publicly about them. James Cannon says Nick never cheated on or “beat” Mariah (good to know?) and that Nick should have focused more on Mariah’s career. Of course, James also says that Mariah is an “angel” and he never “saw her as diva,” so clearly this man has issues. You can go here to read more of his comments.

    That gold chain and sweats Nick is wearing in that first pic is grounds for divorce in my opinion. Who wears that out in public?

  2. Kiddo says:

    Mr. Here a Thing is back, apparently.

    • Diana says:

      Dude needs to stop!

    • Size Does Matter says:

      The comments from him in this article seem like a complete 180 from here a thing, what, two days ago? Is he on Mariah’s payroll now?

      • Kiddo says:

        Slightly subtler on the shade. Sounds coached in stepping near the line, but not over it.

      • Ag says:

        i think he’s just nuts. that’s a medical term. 😉

      • Kiddo says:

        haha. You’re sounding like mimif there.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Here’s A Thing is batshit crazy.

        ‘A woman’s sole purpose is to spread a man’s seed and let her womb be fertilized by a man, blah, blah, blah’

        Honestly, I was really surprised to read how incredibly sexist Here’s A Thing is because Nick Cannon never came across as sharing that kind of a view towards women. But it does make think differently about Cannon though.

        I also think Here’s A Thing is obsessed with procreation in a really creepy way.

      • Kiddo says:

        Here a thing: Someone posted that Nick was primarily raised by his mother and grandmother. I’m not sure how much influence HereaThing had in his son’s life, but he sure seems to be piling it on now.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Oh really? Interesting, because Here’s A Thing claimed in his “book” that when he found out he was having a son, he immediately enrolled in parenting classes.
        It seems Here’s A Thing might be full of sh*t.

      • Petunia says:

        Right?!! This douchehammer freeloading dad needs to shut it. Of course, there’s rumors he is Nicks mouthpiece ….. Here’s the thing,.. When your son marries so indescribably up in the f”?;ed up Hollywood food chain, produces innocent offspring, then predictably bails, keep you gdamned mouth shut bitch! Go away nick. You’ll fade into obscurity where you started before your delusional ego convinced you that being Mr Carey has nothing to do with where you are today. God bless every hustling gold digging Ho. Just remember where you came from….. And no kissing:)

    LMAO he has issues ’cause he thought Mariah was an angel not a diva?

  4. GiGi says:

    Nick Cannon, at 33, looks like he’s been president for 8 years. The man has aged double time, it seems. Because you know being married to Mariah is probably just as stressful as being the leader of the USA.

    • starrywonder says:

      Dang he does look old. I had no idea he was 33.

    • LAK says:

      i was so shocked when i saw recent pictures. It’s not as if i was paying attention to him per se. in my mind he was frozen at 15yrs old at most. i can’t believe how old he looks!!! presidentail aging is the only comparison.

    • Sarah says:

      Nick actually got very sick a couple of years back, his kidneys shut down. I’m pretty sure he was near death. He started looking rough after that.
      Of course a bad marriage can do that, but he looked about 60 for a while after that stint in the hospital.

  5. Sarah says:

    Nobody ever thought this would last. Yes Mimi is a diva, but it’s hard for a man to play second fiddle to his wife even in 2014.
    Nick can go find a Karrueche or Christina Milian type and be the man holding the cards, or he can keep carrying Mariah’s purse.

    • Kiddo says:

      @Sarah, This is precisely what Mr. Here a Thing is saying in a backhanded sort of way. That the relationship only would have lasted if Nick catered to Mariah’s career. He always thought she was an angel not a diva doesn’t mean that he doesn’t think she isn’t a diva now, especially coupled with the first statement about how it (the marriage) would have lasted if Nick only worked on Mariah’s career. And he brings up how Nick could have cheated, if he wanted to, as if he did Mariah a favor by not doing so.

      He seems to have graduated to a much more subtle tone of shading versus the last hardly veiled questions about what a man should do.*

      Puleerzeeeee! Bitch signed up to take a ride on the fame train!!! There’s no one, shortof present day fourth graders, that didn’t realize MiMi was nutsballz!!! This bottom tier questionable talent saw a gold digger hall of fame/ insecure aging diva and pounced. Now, predictably, he’s bailing. Shame that he pro created and brought innocent future rehab patients into the mix. Bye bitch!

  6. LAK says:

    to beat or not to beat is an option in marriage?

    good to know.

    • Kiddo says:

      To beat or not to beat. that is the question:
      Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
      The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
      Or to take arms against a sea of troubles….

  7. Greata says:

    I am not even a Mariah fan, but Nick cannon possesses the three qualities I most despise in a human being…dishonesty, disloyalty, and ungratefulness. She is well rid of him. I hope she gets whatever help she needs, but she does not need him. Nick cannon knew what he was getting into when he married Mariah. He is not some innocent lamb that she lured into her den. As for the father…”Nick should have focused more on Mariah’s career” Oh yeah…so he could ensure that he gets a bigger piece of the pie? Nick Cannon has his own career, or lack thereof issues to look after.. I wonder if he realizes how many doors being married to Mariah opened for him. Nick Cannon is a PLAYER! Not buying his victim/concerned -parent routine one bit. End of rant.

    • MrsBPitt says:

      wow…I always, kinda, respected the fact that Nick continued to work, even though he could have stayed home and lived off Mariah…and, please tell, what insights you have into Nicks, dishonesty, disloyalty, and ungratefulness…because I have no idea what you are talking about….

      • Ag says:

        he seems to hustle and always has several jobs – the man is no lazy kfed. and he always seemed to genuinely adore mariah. whatever happened between them, and whatever either one of them is, him being a concerned parent is likely a separate issue.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        I don’t know much about Cannon but this was always the impression I got from him as well. I’m very curious about the “disloyal, ungrateful” stuff. What did he do exactly?

      • Petunia says:

        Seriously?!? He used her fame to get ahead. Fine by me, that’s how gold digging , psychologically stunted, emotionally damaged, kids end up making it in lieu of college and values, morals, that type of characteristics that make decent humans.
        Here’s what…. Play Hollyweird all day long. DO NOT bring children into your self serving narcissistic , daddy issue having , morally bankrupt and desperate , empty quest to see your picture in some meaningless magaZine!!! Nick Cannon you suck balls!

  8. kri says:

    Honestly, I think this is gonna get kids-in-kitchen-baking-a cake messy. He could have lots of interesting stories to tell, and I’m sure she has something to say about his (rumored) infidelities. It’s just another celeb couple splitting up. If the money is agreed upon, we won’t hear too much. If not, things will get interesting.

    • kaligula says:

      Hmmm. I think it will be restrained. There’s a lot of talk about various Hollywood/show biz marriages that are fake, beards and what not. I don’t believe most of that but this was one I always felt was a straight up arrangement. I don’t think either are hurting that much and money’s been arranged long ago.

  9. Honeybea says:

    Everyone always talks about how difficult it must be to live with Mariah, but Nick seems like he would be too. he’s always bouncing off the walls and seems exhausting. I don’t think these two should have married to begin with. Nick seems like he just loved the idea of Mariah and Mariah probably just liked having someone so enamoured with her.

  10. Bridget says:

    I shudder to think about what it would be like if my mom was my spokesperson in a breakup. I’m fairly certain it would all be mortifying.

    There’s no way Mariah would ever take Nick back now that this stuff has gone public. She’s not really one who would be okay with the optics of that.

  11. tabasco says:

    I love the pic of her with her curls. Remember 90s Mariah with the curls? Those are natural, yes? I might be on too much crack, but she looks to me like she mostly wears her own hair. Mariah’s curls are great. I hope she brings them back. Maybe part of her post-divorce transformation. There’s always a post-divorce transformation! 🙂

  12. Jackson says:

    I’d divorce my husband if he dressed like that, too.

    The devil is a lie

    they’ll reconcile
