Mr. and Mrs. Cannon
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Reports broke last week that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon had quietly gotten married.
Now it looks like it’s official. In the issue that hits newstands Friday, People magazine has exclusive photos of the couple’s nuptials at the pop star’s estate in the Bahamas. “We really do feel we are soulmates,” Carey says in the story.
Oprah Winfrey also talked about the wedding on her show
Tuesday (watch the clip). The talk show queen says Carey already had a “Mrs. Cannon” tattoo on her back when Winfrey interviewed her, a week before the ceremony.
A lot of people have talked about how quickly the two tied the knot, but their chemistry is obvious in Carey’s new video “Bye Bye.” The age difference between the two also is frequently discussed — Carey is 38, 11 years older than Cannon. And there has been some speculation from naysayers that it was done as a publicity stunt to promote Carey’s new album and to jumpstart Cannon’s career.
Considering their whirlwind romance, will their marriage last?
