It's getting serious! James Packer reportedly wants to take his new girlfriend Mariah Carey to his native country Australia
They've made no secret of the fact they're dating by their obvious displays of affection.
But James Packer's relationship with Mariah Carey seems to be moving faster than people initially thought as the billionaire is reportedly planning to introduce his lady love to his mother, Roslyn.
A source close to James told the Daily Telegraph on Sunday: 'Mariah absolutely loves Australia, has many fans there, and would love to visit some time in the near future with James.'
And the 47-year-old businessman's determination to bring the pop sensation to his native home country may have something to do with why he recently took his Bondi home off the market.
The casino billionaire, who spends copious amounts of time Stateside, told property agents he wants to hold onto the Sydney home, which overlooks Bondi beach, according to The Australian.
Agents for Ballard and Sotheby's are said to have fielded generous offers in the region of $20million for the four-storey, five-bedroom home, but James has rejected them all, the newspaper reports.

The white-washed apartment, with a garage big enough to accommodate eight cars, was where he and first wife Jodhi Meares lived before the pair split in 2002 following three years of marriage.
News of James and Mariah's romance first surfaced last weekend when the couple were spotted ambling along the narrow streets of Capri, Italy, hand-in-hand, leaving passersby agog.
The Love Takes Time hitmaker, 45, accepted the James' invitation to sail around the Mediterranean and the mogul - Australia's fourth richest man - has been seen fawning over the singer's four-year-old twins, Morocco and Monroe, who have joined them on the trip.

The curvaceous babe took her split from her Nick hard and, during a Christmas concert in New York last year, broke down in tears as she attempted to sing Hero to a packed out audience.
Nick has since reportedly signed a deal to write a tell-all book about their turbulent marriage after the pop diva rejected his repeated demands for a $30 million divorce settlement.
Prior to Nick, Mariah was married to Tommy Mottola from 1993 until 1998.
