Mariah Carey Loses Both Mother and Sister on the Same Day

Mariah Carey is dealing with immense grief after her mother, Patricia, and her sister, Alison, both passed away on the same day this past weekend. In a statement, the singer expressed her heartbreak, saying, "My heart is broken that I’ve lost my mother this past weekend. Sadly, in a tragic turn of events, my sister lost her life on the same day." Mariah shared that she feels fortunate to have spent the last week with her mother before she passed. She concluded her message by thanking everyone for their love, support, and respect for her privacy during this incredibly difficult time. The causes of death for Patricia and Alison are not yet known. Mariah had a complex relationship with her mother, which she described as a "prickly rope of pride, pain, shame, gratitude, jealousy, admiration, and disappointment" in her 2020 memoir, "The Meaning of Mariah Carey." Despite their ups and downs, they maintained a bond, and Mariah acknowledged her mother's efforts, saying she always loved her. Her relationship with Alison was even more strained, with Alison having previously sued Mariah over abuse allegations related to her memoir. Photo credit: The Sun More at:www.ninaworldnews.com.
