How Much Older Is Mariah Carey Than Boyfriend Bryan Tanaka?
Mariah Carey was married to Tommy Mottola from 1993 until 1998. Mottola and Carey had quite the troubled marriage, and Carey later wed Nick Cannon. Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey had two children together — Moroccan Scott Cannon and Monroe Cannon, who they continue to parent together despite their divorce. Though Mariah Carey is much younger than Tommy Mottla, she is Nick Cannon’s senior.
Though there is a 20 year age difference between Mottola and Carey — as Mottola is 70 years old and Carey is 50 — Carey is 11 years older than Nick Cannon, as the former America’s Got Talent host is now 39. However, how much older is Carey than her current beau Bryan Tanaka?
