James Packer and Mariah Carey Enjoy Summer Holidays on Capri

The new couple was noticed sailing on the Italian shores last Saturday.

The well-known American pop singer Mariah Carey was spotted sailing in the Mediterranean in the company of James Packer, a casino billionaire from Australia. Although the 47-year-old businessman is considered to be the fourth richest man in Australia, not much about him is known in the U.S.

The few information that can be found about Packer on the celebrity and gambling news pages give mainly a positive picture about the owner of Crown Resort. They portray him as a great philanthropist and founder of the biggest philanthropic foundation in Australia, a passionate lover and fighter, and a person from a renowned Australian family.

A new romance flourishing?

Packer is the executive chairmen of Crown resorts limited, one of the most prominent gaming and entertaining company with a market value of more than AUD 6 billion. He also owns about 50% of the holdings of Betfair Australasia Pty Ltd, a leaders in online betting in Australia.

According to the celebrity news website TMZ, Packer has been spending months pursuing Mariah. Last Saturday they have been caught walking hand-in-hand on the Italian costal area. Enough reasons for the rumors that a new romance is in the making.
