Mariah Carey has reportedly found a vice that’s helping her cope with the stress and loneliness following her split from Nick Cannon — food.
An insider close to the mom-of-two tells ‘In Touch’ the Elusive Chanteuse is “eating the pain away” as she struggles emotionally.
The insider explains, “When Mariah’s going through a difficult time, you can usually find her in the kitchen. It’s nothing new.”
“She’s excited but also nervous,” the insider says. “It’s a lot of work, and the stress of it all is causing her to overeat.”

Dr. Fred Pescatore — who has not treated Mariah — explains to ‘In Touch,’ “People usually feel great immediately, but then the guilt sets in, which makes them eat even more.”
