Nick Cannon hasn’t ruled out a reconciliation with his ex-wife, Mariah Carey , but he’s aware that rekindling their romance eight years after a highly publicized divorce may be a bit of a pipe dream. In a joint “E! News” interview with his “We Playin’ Spades” co-host Courtney Bee that aired Tuesday, Cannon said he’d “absolutely” get back together with Carey, with whom he shares 13-year-old twins , Moroccan and Monroe. “[It would] be stupid if I wouldn’t,” the actor and comedian said, before winking at one of his ex’s hit songs.
“We belong together.” Still, he acknowledged ruefully that “she don’t want me.” Cannon and Carey first met at the 2005 Teen Choice Awards.
However, they weren’t romantically linked in the media until about three years later, when Cannon appeared in the music video for Carey’s 2008 single “Bye Bye.” In May of that year, it was confirmed they’d secretly tied the knot in the Bahamas. Rumors of marital strife began surfacing in mid-2014, roughly a year after Cannon and Carey had renewed their vows in a Cinderella-themed ceremony at Disneyland.
By that December, Cannon confirmed that he and Carey had separated. Their divorce was finalized in November 2016. That same year, Cannon publicly swore off getting married again, telling DuJour : “There’s like a 50/50 chance of a marriage working.
If it didn’t work out for you the first time, and you still survived it, you probably shouldn’t do it again.” Of c.
