Mariah Carey wears a bikini in the bathtub

The singer no longer bathes in the nude.

Apparently she’s not a fan of “busy patterns” and “doesn’t do stairs”, but Mariah Carey’s latest confession that she bathes in a swimsuit isn’t just another diva-ish whim.

The actual reason will have mothers everywhere nodding in sympathy, as she admits she can rarely enjoy a bath “where no one’s banging on the door going, ‘Mommy!’”

“I love them so much, but when I’m home, they just want to be with me,” the 45-year-old said of her twins, Monroe and Morrocan.

“I’ll often take a bath in a bathing suit knowing that I’m going to have to let them in. It’s that one thing that used to be my private time, and now it’s not, but that’s OK,” she told People.

Mariah recently dished on her relationship with Australian billionaire James Packer, explaining how the pair met.

“We first met in Aspen a couple of years ago,” she told radio host Steve Harvey.

“We were talking and laughing and people were getting mad at us and stuff like that. So we hit it off!”
