Where there's smoke, there's fire and the troubling rumors that have been surrounding Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey have reportedly led to a divorce, according to TMZ. The report says that the two have been living separately in New York City since May and besides coming to see the kids, Nick has had no contact with Mariah.

According to TMZ's sources, things started to go sour when Cannon appeared on Power 106's Big Boy's Neighborhood in LA and named five celebrities he slept with. Carey was reportedly incensed when Cannon publicly revealed that he had previously slept with Kim Kardashian. To make matters worse, Cannon then went on SiriusXM's Howard Stern Show and claimed that Carey would not sleep with him before they got married—which only pissed Mariah off more.

The individual careers of the two have also reportedly added to the turmoil. Carey was upset that Cannon took every job he was offered, even when they didn't need the money, because it keeps him away from the kids. On the flipside, Cannon feels that Mariah has become impossible because she only keeps "yes men" around her and can't handle when Cannon disagrees with her.
