Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon had quite a whirlwind romance when they first got together. The pair were together for just six weeks before they got married in the Bahamas in April 2008. Three years later, Mariah and Nick were blessed with their fraternal twins, Monroe and Moroccan. Unfortunately, the then-idolized couple would not stay married for too much longer after that, having separated in 2014, with their divorce being finalized in 2016. At the time, Cannon had no other children, so his attention was solely on his son and daughter.
The Nickelodeon and MTV star spoke positively about his co-parenting relationship with Mariah, and how they both are putting the kids first. It was after ending their six-year marriage that Cannon would slowly gain a reputation for how rapidly he was having kids, and the number of women he was having those kids with.

And a lot of that money is being put to good use.
