Between their wedding and welcoming twins Moroccan and Monroe, Carey and Cannon purchased a $6.9-million Colonial-style mansion in Bel-Air nicknamed Fleur de Lys. The 11,750-square-foot home was previously owned by ’80s star Farrah Fawcett and boasted all the trappings of a celebrity estate: two gated driveways and motor courts out front and a huge brick terrace and luxurious swimming pool out back. The property featured multiple wings, with a double-height foyer, home theater, game room, recording studio, indoor basketball court, and something called the Aspen Room, a 32-foot-long entertainment lounge with a huge fireplace.

Situated on an acre within coveted gated community The Oaks, the estate measured 18,000 square feet, with six bedrooms and nine bathrooms, as well as a theater, a sauna, and a gym. The stones that made up the house were reportedly imported from Italy. The couple’s time together—and their time at the mansion—was short-lived, however.

The Grammy winner leased a Mediterranean-style mansion in Beverly Hills for $35,000 a month which had previously been occupied by Nicki Minaj, whom Carey famously feuded with while the two were judges on American Idol. The home’s amenities and aesthetic likely outweighed the bad blood; it featured a total of eight bedrooms and four full and four half baths in the main residence,…
