It was previously reported that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon were going to spend Christmas together as a family, but now it looks like plans have changed.

Nick Cannon Says That He & Mariah Carey Still Keep In Contact

On Tuesday, E! News reported that the singer has apparently decided to celebrate the holidays without her husband due to their split.

"The original plan has been for the whole family to spend Christmas together in Colorado," a source told the site. "However, Mariah has now asked Nick not to come."

Did Nick Cannon Have An Affair?

Based on the reasons for this, it seems like things have not been going too well for the ex-couple. It might be too dramatic for them to be around each other for the holidays.

"It's based on a few things," the source revealed. "For starters, they spent Thanksgiving together and fought behind the scenes. How is it healthy for the kids if both parents are technically in the same place but fighting?"

It also looks like Carey might be holding some resentment against Cannon for some downfalls that came with recent performances, and it's really getting to her.

"She holds him partially responsible for the bad press her recent performances have gotten," the source said. "She's been so stressed over the split- with the fighting and crying- it's definitely affected her state of mind, her head, her voice and her stage presence. It's rattled her."

The insider added that Cannon "says he's [still] coming" so the two might be able to work something out in time for Christmas.
