News trickled down yesterday that the rumors of a divorce between Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey were true and that the two are, in fact, splitting. According to a TMZ source, Mariah Carey has placed a gag order on her ex-beau and Cannon can't say a thing about the break up. The lawyer team's behind each respective party reached a confidentiality agreement and it's apparently one-sided. TMZ reports that if Nick says anything about the pending divorce, he faces severe financial penalties and Mariah has the right to announce the split on her own terms.
