The deets of Mariah’s pre-nup have leaked – and they are INSANE
By now you will be aware that Mariah Carey’s engagement to James Packer is no more, and we’re starting to grasp why things didn’t work out for the pair.
Details of a prenuptial agreement drafted by Packer’s people have been leaked to TMZ, and it looks like there were a LOT of numbers at play in this relationship.
Drawn up by Packer’s staff, the draft was ultimately rejected by Mariah for being ‘tacky and insulting’, and we have to side with the diva on that front.
James appears to have been very concerned about gifts, with $250,000 chosen as the cut-off point; anything above that was not to be considered a present unless it came with a note expressly saying, ‘This is my gift to you’.
The draft also revealed that James had agreed to purchase clothes for the Heartbreaker singer – but NOT for her two children, five-year-old ‘Roc and ‘Roe.
In fairness to James, he was prepared to give his other half the use of his private jet, but there were certain conditions at play.
An excerpt from the pre-nup read: “James shall provide the use of one private aircraft, of his selection, for Mariah’s personal use…only when James, in his sole discretion, determines it is appropriate to do so.”
We’re guessing last-minute trips to Paris were off the cards, then.
Apparently, this version of the agreement was scrapped due to Mariah’s deep dissatisfaction with James’ financial terms in the event of a split.
Negotiations are said to have broken down when James pledged (let’s face it, a measly) $30 million settlement fund in the case of a divorce.
We don’t know a whole lot about pre-nups or this relationship, but we reckon this might have proven a little too claustrophobic for Mariah.
