Nearly one year after Mariah Carey and her fiancé James Packer called it quits, the billionaire businessman is revealing why they didn’t belong together in the first place.
The pair first met in Aspen, Colorado in 2014 after mutual friend Brett Ratner introduced them to each other at the Hercules premiere. After going public with their romance in June 2015 when they were spotted getting cozy on an Italian vacation, they made their red carpet debut at The Intern premiere in New York City months later in September.

The pair’s relationship reportedly took a turn for the worse when they got into an argument while vacationing in Greece. A source close to Carey previously told PEOPLE that “James has not been in a mentally healthy place and has not been present for Mariah or her family” and that “his behavior was not a desirable situation for Mariah so she unfortunately had to leave him.” But Packer’s rep claimed those comments were “simply not true.”

According to a source close to the billionaire businessman, however, it’s “typical Mariah to just twist things that don’t sound good to her. They split because she has issues. James is definitely an oddball, but a brilliant great guy. To put her issues on James is ridiculous.”
On Thursday, multiple sources revealed to PEOPLE the singer and the Australian billionaire businessman split after Packer “needed a break.”
