Mariah Carey’s mom and sister tragically die on the same day: ‘My heart is broken’

Mariah Carey revealed mom Patricia and sister Alison both tragically died over the weekend.

“My heart is broken that I’ve lost my mother this past weekend,” Mariah, 55, said in a statement shared with People Monday. “Sadly, in a tragic turn of events, my sister lost her life on the same day.”

Although the Grammy winner did not reveal either cause of death, she was able to spend time with her 87-year-old mother before her passing.

“I feel blessed that I was able to spend the last week with my mom before she passed,” she added. “I appreciate everyone’s love and support and respect for my privacy during this impossible time.”

It’s unclear when she last saw Alison, who was 63 at the time of her death.

Patricia shared Mariah, Alison and son Morgan with ex-husband Alfred Roy Carey. The exes wed in 1960 and split when the “Obsessed” singer was 3.

Mariah inherited her vocal talents from her mother, who was a Juilliard-trained opera singer and vocal coach. 

However, the mother-daughter duo had a very complex relationship, which Mariah once described as “a prickly rope of pride, pain, shame, gratitude, jealousy, admiration, and disappointment.”

Alison and Patricia died “the same day,” Mariah announced.

The legendary singer opened up about the pair’s relationship in her 2020 memoir, “The Meaning of Mariah Carey.”

“Like many aspects of my life, my journey with my mother has been full of contradictions and competing realities. It’s never been only black-and-white — it’s been a whole rainbow of emotions,” she wrote.

Despite their ups and downs, the “Hero” singer dedicated the memoir in part to her mother.

“And to Pat, my mother, who, through it all, I do believe actually did the best she could,” she wrote. “I will love you the best I can, always.”

While Mariah and her mother were able to maintain a relationship, the singer revealed she did not have contact with her siblings at the time the book was published.

She explained that it was “emotionally and physically safer for [her] not to have any contact” with Alison or Morgan.

In the book, the “We Belong Together” singer wrote extensively about her tumultuous childhood, detailing several alleged instances of abuse at the hands of her siblings.

In one chapter, Mariah alleged that when she was 12 years old, her then-20-year-old sister drugged her with Valium, “offered [her] a pinky nail full of cocaine, inflicted [her] with third-degree burns and tried to sell me out to a pimp.”

She also claimed that her siblings and mother started treating her like “an A.T.M. with a wig on” after rising to fame.

Alison and Morgan later sued Mariah for “intentional infliction of emotional distress” and defamation, respectively.

Alison also sued her mother in 2020 over childhood abuse claims.
