Are giddy newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon America's most cringe-worthy couple?

Updated 12:00pm on 17 May 2008


At first they were desperate to keep their romance top secret, but now newlyweds Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon want everyone to know their in love.

The giddy newlyweds could barely keep their hands and eyes off each other in a rather nausea-inducing show of affection at Magic Mountain fun park in California on Wednesday.

And the pair were again spotted pawing all over one another at a charity gala for Operation Smile in New York last night.

The 38-year-old singer wed rapper and actor Nick Cannon, 27, at her private estate in the Bahamas on April 30th after a whirlwind six week romance.

The couple, who originally met at the Kids' Choice Awards in 2005, fell for each other when Nick flew to Antigua at the end of March to play Mariah's love interest new video Bye Bye.

Nick proposed to Mariah on April 26 on the roof of her Manhattan apartment as they watched a lighting display on the Empire State Building to celebrate the success of her new album E=MC2.

He surprised Mariah by presenting her with a kids' ring pop candy ring, which had a £1.25million, 17 carat diamond ring hidden inside the plastic casing.

Nick said: "She ran away and got all shy."

During a helicopter ride over the city later that night, Nick proposed again and Mariah finally accepted.

Just days later, the couple wed in a sunset ceremony at Mariah's home on Windermere Island in the presence of a few friends and family members.

Mariah explained: "We really do feel we are soulmates. I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me."

Nick admitted he nearly fainted during the ceremony: "I was elated, but I was thinking, 'Don't pass out.'

"[The pastor] said, 'The eyes are the window to the soul,' then gave us an entire minute to stare into each other's eyes. So I was saying, 'Don't cry.'"

This is the first marriage for Nick, who ended his five month engagement to model Selita Ebanks in October, while Mariah divorced music mogul Tommy Mottola in 1998 after five years of marriage.

Where it all began: the pair on set of her Bye Bye music video in Antigua, were the couple met in March
