Her sister, Alison Carey, passed away at 63, which occurred in Greene County due to complications with her organ function.
In her 2020 memoir, The Meaning of Mariah Carey, Mariah revealed that her relationships with her family members, particularly her sister, have often been strained and distant.
From Million-Dollar Inheritance To Financial Struggles: Alison Carey’s Rapid Decline In Net Worth!
Mariah’s older sister, Alison Carey, has led a life starkly different from her famous sibling.
While reliable information on Alison’s current net worth is scarce, it is generally believed to be minimal, likely only a few thousand dollars, if not less.
Alison’s financial situation contrasts sharply with her past. After her father passed away in 2002, she inherited $1 million.
She was worth a substantial amount at one point but spent it quickly and lost everything.
A family friend said Alison would spend a week and a half living at the St. Regis, accumulating $15,000 tabs during her stays.
It was heartbreaking for the whole family to watch her waste what her father, Alfred, had spent his entire life earning. He had hoped that Alison would be well taken care of.
This rapid expenditure contributed to her financial difficulties, leaving her in a much worse situation than before.
Unlike Mariah Carey, Alison did not have substantial wealth at the time of her passing. Over the years, she has faced severe financial difficulties and had to rely on public assistance.
Her situation has been so terrible that she has struggled to afford necessities, including food, and has been trying to survive on her benefits.
Alison’s Financial Hardship Amidst Sister Mariah’s Lavish Lifestyle!
In an exclusive interview with Sun Online, Alison revealed that despite her desperate need for help, none of her family members have offered assistance.
She explained that she urgently needed $3,900 to buy false teeth after having her own removed, but she has received no support.
Living in a small apartment in Kingston, upstate New York, she battled HIV and substance abuse since her mid-20s.
In contrast to Alison’s life, her sister Mariah enjoys a lavish lifestyle. Alison has commented on this disparity, saying,
You know I try not to be bitter but it is difficult when I see her lifestyle, the big house, always flying around in private jets. She probably spends more on her dogs in a week than I spend in a year. And if it was the other way around I would help her in an instant.
Alison Carey
Alison also expressed feelings of abandonment by her family, including Mariah, their mother Patricia, and her own four children.
Despite her well-documented struggles, Alison has not had a career in the spotlight that could provide substantial earnings.
