Mariah Carey’s Sister Hadn’t Seen The Singer In Years, Friend Says
HuffPost
The pop superstar previously addressed being estranged from her sibling in her memoir, saying that it was “emotionally and physically safer” to sever all contact.
A friend of Mariah Carey’s late sister has shared details about her life and her strained relationship with the artist following her passing.
On Monday, Mariah Carey confirmed to People magazine that her older sister, Alison Carey, and mother, Patricia Carey, had died on the same day over the weekend. The five-time Grammy winner did not offer any further details, including either of their causes of death.
In an interview with People published Wednesday, David Baker, Alison Carey’s friend, discussed their relationship, saying he spoke with her almost daily for about nine years after first meeting in 2015.
The two met while she was recovering from a brain injury she’d sustained in a home invasion. Baker went to visit her at a hospital in upstate New York after Morgan Carey, who is Mariah and Alison Carey’s brother, asked for help with her in a Facebook group Baker was a part of.
“I knew when I saw the request that I was the only person anywhere near Albany, New York, so I said, ‘Well, I’m going to go for this,’” he told People, adding, “I saw somebody who needed help and I knew I could do it.”
