Reflections on Marriage

In her memoir, Carey addressed the complexities of their divorce. She admitted that she believed they could have worked things out between themselves without the need for legal battles. However, inflated egos and heightened emotions were involved. Despite the ups and downs of their relationship and the messiness of their divorce, Carey reflected:

“We will always be family, and we make it work.”

Cannon also had candid reflections on marriage. He felt that it might not be for everyone, comparing it to the uncertainty of survival when skydiving. The odds of a successful marriage didn’t seem favorable to him, given his previous experience.

His experience with marriage has reshaped his perspective, and he no longer believes in it as an institution. He prefers to focus on personal growth. While he gave love another chance on a blind date, he wants his children to know he’s not a “player.” Cannon acknowledged:

“I’m really just focused on me and being the best because, for some reason, I haven’t gotten this relationship thing right. I’m not good at it.”
