Mariah Carey's love life, kids and net worth as she appears on Meghan Markle's podcast

Meghan Markle has just launched her own podcast, Archetypes, with her first guest being Serena Williams.

It got off to a rocky start, with critics slamming the Spotify show as “just another way she can talk about herself,” according to the Daily Telegraph.

Listeners claimed Meghan dominated the podcast, but royal commentator Kinsey Schofield warned that Mariah Carey won't let her monopolise the conversation.

Speaking on GB News, Kinsey said: "I highly doubt Mariah Carey will give her as much time to talk about herself as her friend Serena Williams did.

“But these are two huge names. Obviously, she’s going to use those bigger names to elevate herself, to elevate her brand.

"But after Maria Carey, we have Mindy Kaling, you know, she’s a great comedian and a familiar name.

"But the names start to look questionable. You’re not familiar with a lot of the other people on the podcast, so I’m not sure she’ll be able to sustain that number one spot."

Mariah is known as the original diva among her fans, and she has quite the story to tell on the podcast.

Here is everything you need to know about the singer ahead of the show.

Who is Mariah Carey dating?

Mariah is in a relationship with one of her backing dancers, Bryan Tanaka, with the pair dating since 2016.

The two have a 14-year age gap, with Mariah being 53 and Bryan 39 years-old.

They have known each other since 2006 though they only started dating when Mariah called it quits with her fiancé James Parker in 2016.

Even though the couple were spotted together on numerous occasions the following year, it wasn’t until February 2017 when Mariah subtly confirmed their relationship status.

She said at the time: "I'm just going to be like 'I really don't talk about my personal life.' Because that's what I used to do and it really worked for a minute, back, a while ago.

"I just don't feel comfortable talking about my personal life … Me and my boyfriend don't want to do that."

Later that month, the two became Instagram official with the singer sharing a snap of them kissing, captioned: "No one knows what it means, but it's provocative … it gets the people going!"

The two are still going strong today, with them regularly sharing loved-up snaps of each other on social media.

One of Mariah’s main relationships before Bryan and James was Nick Cannon, with the pair married from 2008 to 2016.

During that time, the two started a family together.

Does Mariah Carey have children?

Yes, Mariah has twins that she shares with Nick Cannon.

The pair, named Moroccan and Monroe, were welcomed into the world back in 2011 and they are 11 years old now.

They were born in Los Angeles, on the same day as the couple’s third wedding anniversary.

In an interview with People, the power couple opened up about how they wanted to raise their kids, ensuring that they would be humble despite having superstar parents.

In 2012, Nick said: "I want my kids to understand that every child isn't as fortunate as they are.”

"It's hard, but I try to keep them grounded so they don't think everything is just handed to them," Mariah added in 2019.

What is Mariah Carey’s net worth?

Mariah is one of the biggest names in music and it is no surprise that her net worth reflects her immense success in the industry.

According to celebritynetworth.com, her net worth is estimated to be a whopping $320million (£272.72million).

She is one of the top 15 best selling artists in history, with 200 million albums sold worldwide.

Mariah is only beaten by Madonna to being the best selling female artist of all time and has five Grammys, 10 AMAs and 15 Billboard Music Awards under her belt.
