INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Pop superstar Mariah Carey is grieving the loss of her mother and sister, who both died on the same day over the weekend, according to a statement from the singer.
Patricia Carey, 87, was remembered fondly by the singer, who expressed gratitude for the time she spent with her mother in the final week of her life.
Carey did not disclose the causes of death for her mother or for her sister, Alison Carey, who was 63.
Alison Carey had been estranged from Mariah Carey and sued her in 2021 for emotional distress, alleging that Carey’s memoir, “The Meaning of Mariah Carey,” had caused significant personal harm.
The singer has not yet commented further on the circumstances surrounding her sister’s death.
