While reports are currently unconfirmed, sources have apparently informed The Hollywood Gossip that Nick, 33, has moved out of the marital home and his living with his grandparents.

The comedian has been married to uber-diva Mariah, 44, for six years and the pair have two children together – twins Moroccan and Monroe, aged 3.

Although Nick and Mariah normally appear smitten with each other, posting endless family and couple snaps on social media, things have been a bit quieter lately.

The couple renewed their wedding vows only a year ago with an extravagant wedding ceremony at Disneyland. Since then, Mariah has voiced her distaste with comedian Nick’s routine often referencing their marriage.

She told a New York radio station that she thinks it would be classier if her kept quiet.

“I think, ‘See that’s class, when you don’t have to talk about that relationship that much.’ I’d much prefer that he silencio, just a little bit.”

Earlier this year, Nick dropped his own bombshell in a radio interview with US radio station Power 106, revealing that he once slept with Kim Kardashian. No doubt that’s the kind of brag Mariah wouldn’t be too happy with!

The nature of their work has also kept the couple apart with Nick often in L.A. to film America’s Got Talent while Mariah is based in New York. This can’t have helped any possible tensions between the couple, who put their $13 million home on the market earlier this year.

While there has been no official comment from either camp, we await to hear an announcement – possibly as early as this week.

The couple used to be big fans of family happy snaps – such as this one from Easter, but things have been a bit quiet on that front lately.

Judging by this photo, Nick certainly still had Mariah on his mind at New Years.
