Over the weekend, the music industry was thrown into a whirlwind of emotion. A singing icon, Mariah Carey, speaks out publicly, confirming the deaths of her mother Patricia, and her sister Allison. Here is everything that the heartbroken Mariah Carey announced and is known about the tragedy.
Mariah Carey Steps Forward
With the loss of her mother and sister still weighing deeply on her shoulders, Mariah Carey built the courage to say a few words. In an interview with PEOPLE, she stated, "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 Carey happily reflects on the support and love she has received from fans during her hardship.
Mariah said, "I feel blessed that I was able to spend the last week with my mom before she passed." However, she adds, "I appreciate everyone’s love and support and respect for my privacy during this impossible time." Mariah will need to take time to heal from the past traumatic events as the family comes together to figure out more details about the deaths of Allison and Patricia.
The People Behind the Tragedy
Patricia Carey was an extraordinarily talented opera singer long before she had children. Patricia was the reason Mariah inherited such raw and powerful musical talent. Unfortunately, her relationship with her family remained complicated throughout the life of the superstar Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey wrote in her memoir dedicated to her mother Patricia, The Meaning of Mariah Carey, that,
"Like many aspects of my life, my journey with my mother has been full of contradictions and competing realities. It's never been only black and white — it's been a whole rainbow of emotions... Our relationship is a prickly rope of pride, pain, shame, gratitude, jealousy, admiration, and disappointment." Though the relationship was complicated, Mariah still held onto her love for her mother till the very end.
Mariah's memoir dedication reaffirms this with the message saying, “To Pat, my mother, who, through it all, I do believe did the best she could. I will love you the best I can, always.” On the other hand, Mariah's relationship with her sister was quite complicated as well. Mariah reportedly continued to stay emotionally and physically distant from Allison to feel more safe and secure before her death. Her distance was due to a 1.2 million-dollar lawsuit filed against Mariah Carey and the severe emotional stress that came with it.
Final Thoughts
Fans all around the world come together and offer condolences for the iconic singer Mariah Carey and the losses she endured this past weekend. Little is known about the tragedy that took place; however, as of right now, Mariah Carey is asking the public for privacy and patience as the family investigates further.
Lastly, regardless of the relationship Mariah Carey has had between her sister and her mother, it does not take away the pain that she feels after losing someone not once but twice on the same day. Mariah Carey thanks all of her fans for the love and will update the public when she is ready.
