Mariah struggling to contain her curves after twins

Pop diva Mariah Carey has revealed she can no longer rely on working out in the gym to keep her fabulous figure since becoming a mother.

The 43-year-old welcomed twins Moroccan and Monroe last April – and has admitted keeping in shape wasn't as easy as before.

"Pregnancy was probably the best and the hardest thing I'll ever go through." she said.

"I know for a lot of women, it can be wonderful and relatively easy. But for me, it was like 'Okay, honey, do you have to do everything the hard way?'"

She added: "I used to be able to slim down just by exercising more, but that's changed. Since having the babies, I realise that 90 per cent of losing weight is my diet."
