Mariah Carey breaks up with beau of five months

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey has split from Bryan Tanaka after five months of dating, suggest reports. The singer-actress is said to have ended the relationship because of Bryan's extravagance and 'jealousy' over her equation with ex-husband Nick Cannon.

Mariah continues to be on good terms with Nick since their divorce in 2016 to amicably co-parent their six-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe.

TMZ reports Bryan responded to Mariah's 'closeness' with Nick by flirting with other women in her presence. The situation reportedly came to a head at the Kids' Choice Awards in March, when Mariah and Nick took the twins to the ceremony in Los Angeles. Bryan felt "disrespected" and demanded Mariah come home during the event.

Mariah was also tired of footing the bill for Bryan's expensive taste in jewellery, sources claim.

The two got involved shortly after the blonde beauty's relationship with Australian billionaire James Packer ended in October 2016.
