The Daily Mail aren’t known to mince their words, nor check their sources. But it looks like they’re right about something this time. Mariah pushed her luck with the lock-forward looking James Packer.

James Packer‘s money originated (and is mostly) from his father Kerry Packer’s media empire. Some might say he was making a wise choice getting engaged to Mariah Carey, as she has a small fortune of her own. A fortune, which unfortunately pales in comparison to his. Which is possibly why she got so overexcited. And possibly why they got engaged in the first place?

Just the other day we winced as we watched her unveil their “his and hers” yachts to the world. I remember at the time thinking, “Wow, is Jammo ok with this vibe?”

Turns out he wasn’t. You see, it was her outrageous spending that caused the split. And that exact video – which was a prelude to her proposed reality show “Mariah’s World”.

You need to watch that video…

So blind.

According to Daily Mail:

According to Australian publication Woman’s Day, the billionaire casino don, 48, dumped the 46-year-old pop-star over her ‘extravagant spending’ as well as a falling out over her new reality TV show, Mariah’s World.’It’s all over,’ a family friend allegedly confirmed to the publication this week.

‘James had huge reservations about Mariah’s new reality TV show and the fact that she was willing to expose their lives to the world.’

The glossy magazine also claimed that the tycoon has allowed her to keep her $10m diamond engagement ring.

The pair became engaged in January after a whirlwind romance of less than a year.

Wow, that’s quite a rock. Please tell me you bought that from Diamond Jewellery International in the Bo-Kaap? You could have got double the size for the same amount of money. You could have even won their current competition to design your own.

Another lesson in love for both Mariah and James, as they do some soul-searching, trying to figure out where they can improve.

Mariah fell out of love with her rapper husband Nick Cannon in 2014, but has since dusted herself off and seems to have found stability with Packer.

The singer and America’s Got Talent host Nick married in the Bahamas in April 2008 after just six weeks of dating and a 10 year age difference.

Marriage to Nick changed Mariah’s mind about starting a family after she had previously declared no interest in having kids, with the singer now a doting mother.

She and Nick, with whom she shares four-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan, confirmed their split in April 2014 after months of speculation.

I wonder if she ever played her music when alone with James. Nick Cannon spilled the beans about that quite recently.

That kind of behaviour is surely an alarm bell?
