Nick Cannon Posts Photos With 8 of His 12 Kids
Nick Cannon attends the premiere of Netflix's "Sextuplets" at ArcLight Hollywood on August 07, 2019 in Hollywood, California.
Nick Cannon is showing off his big family, featuring most of his children. Recently, the Celebrity Prank Wars host shared photos on his Instagram Story of eight of his 12 children.
In the first photo, Cannon holds daughter Onyx, eight months, in his lap while sitting in a red chair. The next, Cannon is pictured in a bed with twins Zion and Zillion, two, and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin, seven months. Powerful Queen, two, was featured in the third holding a bunny. His first-born twins, Moroccan and Monroe, 12, made the fourth photo on the set of Cannon’s radio show, The Daily Cannon. Lastly, he posted a photo holding his daughter Halo, four months, in the air.
Back in April, the actor and television personality was asked to name all 12 of his children. In doing so, he left out daughter Onyx’s name. “You threw me off because I was going in order!” Cannon said in his defense. He shares twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey, whom he was married to from 2008 to 2016. Not featured in his Wednesday post were sons Golden Sagon, 6, and Rise Messiah, whom he shares with Brittany Bell. Son Legendary Love, ten months, who he shares with Bre Tiesi, and the late Zen with Alyssa Scott were also not featured in his Instagram Stories.
As we previously reported, Cannon said he spends more than $3 million a year on his 12 kids. Back in November, the Wild N’ Out host said, “I don’t plan to ever have to participate in the governmental system of child.” While he doesn’t give any of his baby’s mothers a “monthly allowance,” he never denies their finances when they need it. “What they need, they get it,” he explained in March. “There’s never been something that one of the mothers of my children has asked for, and they didn’t receive. That’s why they call me the provider.”
Nick Cannon's Latest Child Born; Here's A Timeline of His Kids
Nick Cannon has expanded his family yet again. Now, we knew he was expecting his ninth and tenth children with Abby De La Rosa and Brittany Bell, respectively. Apparently, he also had one on the way with model Lanisha Cole. It was speculated that Lanisha was pregnant with Nick’s child but the news was never confirmed by either parent.
Nick announced the news on his IG with the comment: “Introducing ONYX ICE COLE CANNON. Once again Today I am in Awe of the Devine Feminine! God has given me and @MissLanishaCole the privilege of hosting an Angel here on earth. I vow to protect, provide, guide and love this child to the best of my abilities. I promise to love this little girl with all my heart, regardless what anyone says…I’ve given up on attempting to define myself for the world or society but instead I’m doing the work to heal and grow into the infinite Being God ordained me to be. Hopefully I can teach Onyx the same, to not let others shame or ridicule her with their outside opinions, because when they do they are only projecting their own harsh experiences, pain and social programming onto her unblemished beauty.” Nick even went on to defend Lanisha, saying “[Lanisha] is one of the most guileless, peaceful and nonconfrontational kind souls I’ve ever witnessed, and only deserves to revel in this moment of blissful joy of motherhood. Please give her that. She is so loving and pure hearted.”
Onyx Ice Cole Cannon is now Nick’s ninth child. As mentioned, he is still expecting two more children (that we know of). Are you having a hard time keeping up with all of his kids, and who he had them with? No problem: we’re here to help. Check out our timeline below.
