Grammy-winning singer Mariah Carey is mourning the loss of her mother and sister, who both passed away on the same day. In a statement shared with USA TODAY, Carey expressed her heartbreak and gratitude for the time she spent with her mother before her passing. The cause of death was not shared, but Carey has previously discussed her complicated relationships with family members in her memoir.
Carey was estranged from her father, who passed away in 2002, and had a challenging relationship with her sister and mother. Despite the difficulties, Carey dedicated her book in part to her mother and expressed love for her family members.
Last year, Carey’s relationship with Bryan Tanaka ended after almost a decade, and she recently began her third Las Vegas residency. Carey is also set to embark on a Christmas tour this winter to celebrate the 30th anniversary of her holiday album “Merry Christmas.”
Fans and supporters have been offering love and support to Carey during this difficult time, respecting her privacy as she navigates these losses. Carey’s resilience and dedication to her craft continue to inspire audiences around the world.
