Packer and Meares have been divorced for nearly 13 years after getting married in a lavish Sydney ceremony back in 1999.
Meares now has a sportswear clothing line, The Upside, and has been linked to former Noiseworks frontman Jon Stevens.
Packer divorced wife Erica Baxter in 2013 after six years of marriage and three children together.
Following the divorce, he was briefly linked to model friend Miranda Kerr, although the pair never confirmed their relationship.
Carey, meanwhile, has two kids – four-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan – with ex-husband Nick Cannon.
