Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith

The world of celebrity relationships often witnesses whirlwind romances followed by hasty marriages, a pattern that seldom leads to lasting unions. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s story is a testament to this phenomenon.

Mariah and Nick’s meeting in 2008 quickly culminated in a secret Bahamas wedding mere months into their courtship. In 2011, they welcomed twins into their lives, but by 2014, the strain on their relationship had become evident, leading to their separation. However, they have chosen not to pursue divorce, opting to live separate lives while maintaining their commitment to co-parenting. Their separation coincides with the highly publicized incident at the Oscars, where Will Smith slapped host Chris Rock over a joke about Jada’s alopecia.
