This adds more light as to why Mariah decided to come clean about her bipolar condition. She was likely aware of Stella's plans before news of the lawsuit became public knowledge.., Stella's whole family were privy to Mimi's private info while on the payroll and are likely all a bit salty at having lost their meal ticket. It was sensible of Team Mariah to get ahead of the story. The best thing Stella did was encourage Mariah to tour.., but aside from that the majority of public showings were mishandled and ultimately damaging.
