Mariah and Nick

The rumor mills are ablaze with the fact that Mariah Carey said in her interview with 20/20 that she does not trust her husband of 3 years. In the clip, Barbara Walters asked Mariah if she trusted Nick and she said sometimes. Nick looked very shocked and assured her that she could. This part has received more attention than the babies themselves.

I'm cringing, not because of the soundbite, but because this interview shouldn't have been done. Mariah and Nick should have given 20/20 a picture or tweeted or posted them, but this interview may be the beginning of the end. Anytime you let someone into your relationship, be it one person or millions of people like Mariah and Nick did, you break the bond that you and your partner have. Not only that, it's difficult to get those people out. Now Mariah and Nick's relationship will forever be scrutinized. Everything is open for discussion. Did he cheat? Why would they get married if they didn't know each other? Why did they argue?

Mariah and Nick, let this be your last joint interview. Let this be your last interview about your relationship. Keep your relationship private. Don't involve your family, friends, the public, your hair dresser, anyone. Your relationship should be between you, your spouse, and God or your higher power.
