The young actor Nick Cannon was once quoted for his astonishing marriage to Mariah Carey, saying “I can’t believe I am married to Mariah.” Now Cannon is quoted for something different; “I left Mariah,” apparently Cannon was the one who ended the marriage between he and singer Mariah Carey.

It has been reported over the last several days the couple have been embroiled in an increasingly ugly divorce, America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon admitted during an interview sometime last week he and Mariah had been living separately for months. According to TMZ Cannon has reported and made clear that he was the one who left Mariah, and his deepest concerns lay with the well being of their three-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan.

Sources report Nick believed Mariah’s household to be chaotic and was not suitable for raising three year olds. Apparently Mariah’s household warranted Cannon creating a separate environment as a haven for his children from the chaos surrounding Mariah.

Mariah had previously told E! she could not believe Nick had went out and said these things, that it was not what they had agreed upon and it was not classy. She went on to reveal he was not suppose to say anything, that his actions were extremely childish and it was the last straw; she is done with him now. Mariah meanwhile has made no claim about if Nick left her or vice versa, instead she has posted photographs of her children on her social media outlets, her main priorities circulate around the twins.
