James Packer and Mariah Carey’s wedding in doubt

Packer’s plans to wed his pop princess have hit a snag!
Mariah Carey and James Packer

She’s busily planning her third wedding, but it seems that Mariah Carey may not make it down the aisle at all. Why? Because she’s still legally married to her second husband.

Mariah split from Nick Cannon – with whom she has two children – in August 2014 and he filed for divorce four months later, but now TMZ reports he never signed the official papers, meaning they are still married.

The site says Nick “still loves Mariah and doesn’t want to officially let her go.”

Apparently Mimi is seething and is “frustrated and not flattered at all.”

Nick and Mariah married in 2008 on her private estate on Windermere Island in the Bahamas. They have four-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe together.

James proposed to Mariah in January after a whirlwind romance, presenting her with a 35 carat $7.5 million diamond ring big enough to break a more novice jewellery wearer’s wrist.

A few weeks back the 46-year-old, who is known for her love of all things lavish, seemingly capped expectations on her big day to James.

“I can’t really talk about them right now because everything is still being figured out,” the singer said during an appearance on Live With Kelly.

“[A] reception is for if you have a big wedding. I never said it was gonna be a big wedding,” she hinted.

According to TMZ, Nick won’t sign their divorce papers.

Assuming Mariah’s divorce is finalised, James and Mariah are reportedly planning to tie the knot later this year in an “intimate” ceremony attended by close friends and family.
