Superstar Mariah Carey disclosed that her mother, Patricia Carey, and sister, Alison Carey, died on the same day, causing an unimaginable sadness.
The Grammy Award-winning musician confirmed that two of her close relatives had passed away over the weekend in a message she sent.
Carey said, “I lost my mother this past weekend, and it broke my heart,” according to PEOPLE.
“Unfortunately, my sister passed away on the same day due to a tragic turn of events.”
It goes without saying that going through such a deep loss is an almost unequaled experience, but Carey did thank God she was able to spend time with her mother before she passed away.
The singer of All I Want For Christmas expressed gratitude for having spent the final week of her life with her mother.
“During this impossible time, I appreciate everyone’s love, support, and respect for my privacy.”
The causes of mother Patricia’s and sister Alison’s deaths remain unknown as of the time of writing. Prior to having daughters Alison and Mariah and son Morgan with Alfred Roy Carey, Patricia was a Juilliard-trained opera singer and voice instructor. When Mariah was three years old, her parents got divorced.
The We Belong Together hitmaker and her mother reportedly had a tumultuous relationship, according to PEOPLE.
“Like many aspects of my life, my journey with my mother has been full of contradictions and competing realities,” Mariah Carey said in her 2020 memoir, The Meaning of Mariah Carey. It’s always been a rainbow of feelings rather than just black and white.
Also strained was the singer’s relationship with Alison, at least as of the release of her previously mentioned memoir. Carey stated that it was “emotionally and physically safer for me not to have any contact” with her siblings in the book’s pages.
We are sending Mariah Carey our love and strength. Coping with the death of a loved one is really tough, but having two die away on the same day?
Dσg Didn’t Recσgnize Her Dad After Being Lσst Fσr 3 Years, Then Dad Crσuched
When Paƙita the dσg went missing 3 years agσ, her dad was left harrσwed and terrified. The man felt ρσwerless as he searched fσr her everywhere, σnly tσ get his hσρes damρened σver and σver.

Dad understσσd Paƙita’s stress-induced sƙittish bσdy language, and cσaxed her tσ cσme clσser. Paƙita hesitated, but Dad crσuched and called σut tσ her and that ρushed her tσ gσ ahead and sniff him – and it was a majσr bσlt frσm the blue fσr her! She began recσgnizing his smell and gradually realized her dear lσng-lσst dad had returned tσ taƙe her hσme!
This cliρ caρtures the incredible mσment when Paƙita σvercσmes her dσubts and acƙnσwledges Dad with her ecstatic emσtiσns!
