Say it ain’t so!

Nick Cannon, 33, has confirmed that he and wife of six years Mariah Carey, 45, are no longer living together.

“There is trouble in paradise. We have been living in separate houses for a few months,” said Cannon to Yahoo’s The Insider host Chris Spencer.

The America’s Got Talent host denies that the couple’s problems are due to infidelity. He went on to tell The Insider that his main focus are the pair’s 3-year-old twins Monroe and Morocan also known affectionately as “dem babies.”

Cannon and Carey married in 2008 after only a few weeks of dating.
