Oof. All indicators appear to point that Bryan and Mariah are over after seven years collectively, however neither have confirmed nor denied the rumors to this point. So clearly, take the hypothesis with a grain of salt. But the 54-year-old Grammy winner did appear to drop some hints, noting that she was going via a tough patch in her life!
She instructed People this week she was trying ahead to the vacations this 12 months after experiencing a not-so-fun Christmas final 12 months. Oh no! She stated:
“I’ve been looking forward to this Christmas for, like, the whole year. Since last year — because last year wasn’t the greatest. I’m thankful for them all, but it wasn’t my most fun version of Christmas ever.”
Mariah didn’t share additional particulars about what made final 12 months so unhealthy. However, she promised to “have fun” this vacation season “come hell or high water.” The probability of Bryan becoming a member of her celebrations appears impossible proper now!
