His sister Monroe got her name from Marilyn Monroe, who is one of the role models of their mother, while he got his name after the Moroccan-decor room in Carey’s apartment where Cannon proposed to her.

His parents separated in 2014, and his father filed for divorce in December of the same year. The divorce was finalized two years later, since when Moroccan and Monroe have become older half-siblings to five children from their father’s relationships.

Moroccan is now ten years old and still in elementary school. He is yet to choose his career though he has already introduced himself to the world of show business, appearing in his mother’s projects, including the documentary “Mariah’s World” (2017), and “Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special” (2020).
