Mariah Carey and her estranged fiancé had reportedly agreed on a pre-nuptial agreement before their untimely split.

But it seems that even though they had settled on the terms, the document remained unsigned at the time their wedding was called off.

The $USD50 million Mariah is demanding from James was apparently the amount she would have received under their prenup agreement, according to TMZ.

The publication says it has seen emails dating back from February between the Team Packer and Team Mimi trying to negotiate the terms of the agreement as quickly as possible.

Mimi is going after what she wants from the James Packer prenup.

The billionaire businessman had been keen to rush through the prenup so that he could marry the singer as soon as possible, on March 1 in Bora Bora.

The document, more than 100 pages long, listed everything down to the finest detail that would occur in the event that they split.

TMZ reveals it included a clause that required Mariah to give up everything James had ever given her if they broke up, unless she received a signed note from the mogul himself stating that it was a gift.

But the big detail here is that the agreement said that Mariah would be given $USD50 million if the pair were ever to part.

And that’s reportedly the big reason why the 46-year-old mother of two is pushing for her share of the cash.

Moreover, it’s been revealed that James had been pushing hard to get the document completed ASAP so he could walk down the aisle with his chanteuse fiancée.

An email obtained by TMZ reportedly saw James’s lawyers confirming they would not be able to get the prenup ready in time.

James’s reported response was said to have been swift, and brutal.

Don’t mess with James Packer…

“I don’t know who’s working for who because there are a lot of names I haven’t heard before on this email chain,” he began.

“The people who work for me — message — do as I say or f–k off. I want to get married on March 1st. James.”

TMZ was told that at the time the emails were exchanged, Mariah already had a dress, the flowers had been ordered, and flights for all the guests had been secured.
