Nick Cannon first sparked dating rumors with Mariah Carey in April 2008 after appearing as her love interest in the music video for “Bye Bye” a track off her eleventh studio album titled “E=MC².” The following month, Cannon and Carey shocked the world when they confirmed that they had in fact, tied the knot — after less than two months of dating. “We really do feel we are soulmates. I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me,” Carey gushed to People in an exclusive interview.
Two years later, Carey and Cannon announced that they were pregnant after months of rumors and speculation. “Yes, we are pregnant. This is true. It’s been a long journey. It’s been tough because I’ve been trying to hold on to a shred of privacy,” the “Without You” singer revealed during an appearance on Today Show (via People). On April 30, 2011, the same day as their third wedding anniversary, Carey and Cannon welcomed twins, a boy named Moroccan Scott and a daughter called Monroe. “I spoke to both of them and they are both completely overjoyed,” a representative for the singer confirmed to People at the time.
