'Absolutely emotional' Mariah Carey reveals previous heartbreak over miscarriage as she announces she is pregnant

 Getting married might be a once-in-a-lifetime event for most people – but not for Nick and Mariah. In 2010, the America's Got Talent host revealed that he and his pop star wife would be renewing their vows to mark their second wedding anniversary. "I encourage everybody to do it," he said. "If you are happy and in love, celebrate it!" 

After months of speculation, Mariah Carey has finally confirmed she is expecting her first child  but revealed the difficult time the couple went through after she suffered a miscarriage two years ago.
The 41-year-old singer made the announcement on The Today Show, and admitted both she and husband Nick Cannon are 'absolutely emotional' about the news.
In a sneak peek of Mariah's Access Hollywood three-part interview due to air this week, Mariah is seen saying: 'Yes, we are pregnant. This is true.'
'It’s been a long journey. It’s been tough because I’ve been trying to hold on to a shred of privacy.'

In the interview with Billy Bush, which will air in the US on Thursday, she said the experience had been both traumatic and painful.
She said: '“It kind of shook us both and took us into a place that was really dark and difficult.
'When that happened, I wasn’t able to even talk to anybody about it. That was not easy.'
Cannon added: 'It definitely brought us closer together. It strengthened our relationship so much… She handled it so well.'
He hailed his wife's strength for being able to laugh in front of the cameras, but later, 'crying herself to sleep'.

 It was the second wedding for the curvaceous star, who was married to American music exec Tommy Mottola (21 years her senior) from 1993 until 1997
