Nick Cannon May Be ‘Done’ Having Kids

Nick Cannon may finally be done adding to his large family.

During an appearance on The Really Good Podcast, Cannon gave a surprise reply when asked if he was done having children.

“I think I’m done,” he said with a smile.

As HOT97 previously reported, Cannon has admitted to having trouble remembering the names of all his children. 

“You want all 12?” Cannon asked. “This is where I usually get in trouble… I know all of ’em, but can you rattle off just 12 of anything?”

There’s Roc, Roe, Golden, Powerful, Rise, Onyx, Legendary, Zion, Zillian, Zen, and…” he began. “And see this is where I, uh…”

Cannon admitted that he was “missing two” children, adding Beautiful and his youngest daughter, Halo Marie Cannon. 

“There’s a song, and I was like, I don’t want to do that,” Cannon said about his tactics of remembering his children’s names. “I wrote a verse that had all their names in it, and I just, sometimes I recite that,” he said.

When asked why he has 12 kids, Cannon said he has a “king complex” while comparing himself to the biblical character King Solomon, who had 700 wives and 300 concubines. 

“I don’t want no wives, I just want kids,” Cannon explained

In March, Cannon revealed that his family’s size has caused a strain on his finances.

 “The way my bank account is set up, I’m going to press hold on this 12 for right now.”

In total, Cannon shares twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-wife Mariah Carey; sons Golden Sagon and Rise Messiah Cannon and daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell; twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin with Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi; and daughter Onyx Ice Cole with LaNisha Cole. Cannon is also father to two children with Alyssa Scott — son Zen, who died at five months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer. His daughter Halo Marie Cannon was born on Dec. 14, 2022.
