Really sad. It sounds like Mariah had a very complicated relationship with both women. Navigating those feelings while processing the grief is likely to bring up a whole host of contradictory, competing feelings— I hope she has a good therapist to help her sort it all out.
I agree. She must be dealing witu so many conflicting emotions right now. But I also appreciated that she acknowledged that complexity in her statement – it’s really important to acknowledge that for a lot of us, our parental and/or sibling relationships aren’t entirely happy or healthy, and grief can be extremely complex (or nonexistent) after they pass away. It’s really brave for her to acknowledge that publicly.
I agree, I think its very brave for her to be so open about it. I’ve said on here before that my relationship with my sister was very complicated and when she died relatively suddenly at 37, it was very weird in my family – you feel you can’t fully grieve but you also can’t fully process it. I still haven’t really worked through it and that was 10 years ago.
I wish her healing and peace and love during this time.
She has spoken about the complicated relationship with both women before. I know her sister was toxic (and addicted) and sued Mariah multiple times. Her sister had said that Mariah was “selfish” for not supporting the entire family with her wealth (that she, Allison, should not have to suffer financially, with all the money Mariah has). Mariah had also spoken about how she felt her mother resented her for her success, because the mother was a struggling singer for most of her career. It must have been tough drawing that line with both of them, especially since you can hear the love she has for her mom in that statement.
Read in the DM that Alison received a $1.6 million inheritance from her father. She put some of it in trusts for her kids but blew the rest on drugs reportedly. That’s more than the average person will ever get in a lump sum. It’s hard to imagine how she could continue blaming Mariah when she had the financial means to live a good life without Mariah. Also, this woman had four kids who also seem to be estranged from her. Mariah has financially supported her children and seems to be close to them.
@TNA Allison was troubled and like many addicts manipulative. I think MC did the best she could in difficult circumstances.
No amount of money would ever have made her family happy – also they were often her harshest critics in her darkest moments like when her marriage broke down with Tommy Motola. Allison also drugged Mariah with coke and benzos when she was still just 12 (TWELVE) and tried to sell her to a pimp to feed her drug habit, she was truly toxic.
How awful for Mariah Carey. I can’t even imagine.
“What TV shows had a “god-tier” first season?”
AMC’s Interview with the Vampire, definitely. I am in the minority, because I was deeply disappointed by season two. But season one is still one of the best seasons in television history. I don’t want to overhype it, but it is simply amazing.
I didn’t like season 2 as much either. Too much Armand and not enough Lestat.
Plus Louis is a whiny little bitch.
@leigh. Your comment made me lol. One of my friends keeps complaining about “ whiney little bitch” Louis. But omg that series is SO WELL DONE!! I can’t wait for the new one to come out. The cast is amazing and the writing and sets are spot on. And Lestat…,💕😍
I am thankful anytime anyone support Democrats in the United States, but Iain Armitage is not a good dude. Can’t say more than that, but he is not a decent person.
That seems like a lot to be putting on a 16 year old kid.
It’s a serious matter
How heartbreaking! Her mother had a lovely singing voice. Such a tragedy for the whole family.
