If you’re still nursing a broken heart about the Nick and Mariah break up, Nick Cannon wants to inform you that he’s the one choosing to leave the relationship and it’s for the best.

TMZ reports that Cannon is the one who decided to end the marriage mostly because he believes that Mariah’s mental state isn’t healthy for their family. Sources close to the family revealed to the site Cannon believes “the environment around Mariah is toxic and fears for his kids.”

He’s said to describe their living situation as chaotic and believes Mariah’s primary concern is making money. Apparently, he’s already witnessed signs of emotional upset in their children: Twins, Moroccan and Monroe, which the public has come to know affectionately by their nickname, “Dem Babies”.

The couple has been living separately and despite rumors of Nick’s infidelity he maintains his main focus is his children.

No one likes to see the break up of a family, but the industry has made Mariah’s diva-like ways no secret and I would hate to believe she displays that same kind of attitude at home. We hope this family gets the help and support they need.
