Carey has had a complicated relationship with both her mother and her sister Alison, who has been vocal over the years about her grievances with her famous sister.

In 2016, Alison sent a video to the Daily Mail asking for a reunion with Mariah and financial assistance to cover medical expenses. Alison has struggled with addiction for many years and has tested positive for HIV.

According to Carey’s memoir, “The Meaning of Mariah Carey,” Alison was a troubled teenage parent who literally attempted to sell young Mariah to a pimp.

This and other actions committed in his youth led to the brothers’ estrangement.

As for her mother, Patricia, Carey called their relationship a combination of “betrayal” and “beauty.”

“Ours is a story of betrayal and beauty. Of love and abandonment. Of sacrifice and survival. I have freed myself from slavery several times, but there is a cloud of sadness that I suspect will always hang over me, not simply because of my mother, but because of our complicated journey together,” Carey wrote in the aforementioned autobiography. “She has caused me so much pain and confusion. Time has shown me that there is no benefit in trying to protect people who have never tried to protect me. Time and motherhood have finally given me the courage to honestly face who my mother was to me.”
