<h3 style="text-align: center;">More Details Regarding The Singer &; Bryan Tanaka&#8217;s Reported Split</h3>
<p>According to a report published by <a href="https://pagesix.com/2023/12/20/entertainment/mariah-carey-and-bryan-tanaka-split-he-wants-a-family/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Page Six</a> on Wednesday, December 20, Carey and Tanaka have called it quits over an alleged disagreement.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;He wants to have a family. That’s not where she is at,&#8221; an unnamed source reportedly informed the outlet. &#8220;He wants to start having his own life.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>To note, Carey is 54 and shares two 12-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan, with her ex-husband Nick Cannon. Furthermore, Tanaka is 40 years old and does not have any kids.</p>
<p>The outlet notes that speculation of the couple&#8217;s split began earlier this week. Carey reportedly took an annual vacation to Aspen, Colorado, without Tanaka.</p>
<p>Additionally, Tanaka has not been spotted on Carey&#8217;s &#8220;Merry Christmas One And All&#8221; tour, which kicked off in November.</p>

Additionally, Tanaka&#8217;s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bryantanaka/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official Instagram account</a> features photos of him and Mariah, with one posted on their anniversary in March of this year.</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve been friends for a long time&#8230; Something connected with us back in the day, and there was just a mutual admiration,&#8221; Tanaka explained in a 2016 interview with <a class="class" href="https://www.eonline.com/news/813589/mariah-s-carey-s-new-beau-bryan-tanaka-says-he-s-always-had-a-thing-for-her-i-love-her-so-much" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">E!
