Mariah Carey never had sex with fiancé James Packer

Mariah Carey never had sex with her former fiancé James Packer.

The “Emotions” singer, 50, revealed the tidbit while explaining why the Aussie businessman was excluded from her recently released memoir to the Guardian.

“(James and I) didn’t have a physical relationship, to be honest with you,” she confessed, going on to add, “If it was a relationship that mattered, it’s in the book. If not, it didn’t occur.”

Carey got engaged to Packer, 53, in January 2016 after dating for less than a year. The billionaire businessman called off their engagement in October 2016 after an explosive argument in Greece. Carey later sold off her 35-carat diamond ring for over $2 million.

The mom of two is also unapologetic about being portrayed as high-maintenance.

“I don’t give a s–t,” she exclaimed. “I f–king am high-maintenance because I deserve to be at this point. If I can’t be high-maintenance after working my ass off my entire life, oh, I’m sorry — I didn’t realize we all had to be low-maintenance.

“Hell, no! I was always high-maintenance, it’s just I didn’t have anyone to do the maintenance when I was growing up!”

The “Hero” crooner is also happy to be called a diva.

“Who the f–k cares?” she said. “Honestly! ‘Oh my God, they’re calling me a diva — I think I’m going to cry!’ You think in the grand scheme of things in my life that really matters to me, being called a diva? I am, bitches, that’s right!”

The Meaning of Mariah Carey” is out now.
