One thing that might throw a spanner in the works for his hopeful reunion is that Mariah reportedly isn't interested.

Playing into the joke, Nick called his brood "a whole baseball team," adding that Mariah would be like "'No, you can't come back home.'"
Mariah and Nick were together from 2008 to 2014 when the comedian filed for divorce, which according to the singer could have been avoided.
"Honestly, I think Nick and I could have worked it out between the two of us, but egos and emotions got inflamed (which can translate into many billable lawyer hours, and ultimately it did)," she wrote in her book, The Meaning of Mariah Carey. "It was tough. We both wanted to make sure everything was cool for our family. We will always be family, and we make it work."
