Mariah Carey impersonator opens up about divorcing herself
The model and Mariah Carey impersonator made headlines last year when she held a solo wedding in London, celebrating what she described as a commitment to her own well-being and mental health.
In a candid reflection shared with The Mirror, Carey opened up about the challenges of her sologamous marriage.
“It’s crucial to know when to end a cycle,” she said.
“Even commitment to oneself can have its challenges, such as dealing with the expectation of being perfect for yourself all the time.”
Carey revealed that the pressure of constantly striving for self-perfection left her feeling exhausted at times.
“I realised I was putting a lot of pressure on myself, and sometimes it was overwhelming,” she admitted.
She also shared that despite her best efforts, including attending 10 sessions of couples therapy for her solo relationship, feelings of loneliness led her to seek a divorce.
Reflecting on the experience, Carey stated, “I realised that my sologamous marriage was a process of healing and self-discovery. But I also understood that personal growth can lead us in different directions.”
After filing for divorce, the 36-year-old influencer humorously posted on Instagram, sharing a meme about her breakup with the caption:
“I need a new husband,” accompanied by a laughing emoji.
