Nick Cannon is a busy person—in addition to his hosting gig on The Masked Singer and his appearances on the Wild ‘n Out tour, the 43-year-old shares 12 children with six women.
The television personality makes it a point to spend quality time with his family, and credits the mothers of his children for the work they do behind the scenes to make it happen.
“They kind of plan accordingly, and they don’t have to be, but they’re real empathetic to my process. So, you know, they do things. I’ve seen them make so many sacrifices, so I can be there and haven’t missed a birth or a birthday yet,” Cannon told US Weekly.
He shares two children with his ex-wife, singer Mariah Carey, 13-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe. Additionally, Cannon is the father to Golden, 7, Powerful Queen, 3, and Rise, 2, whom he shares with model Brittany Bell.

Two-year-old Legendary is son to Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi, two-year-old Onyx is daughter to model LaNisha Cole, and Halo, 1, is daughter to model Alyssa Scott. Cannon and Scott also shared a son, Zen, who died at five months from brain cancer in 2021.
Another set of twins, 3-year-olds Zion and Zillion, and Beautiful Zeppelin, 1, who he shares with radio personality Abby De La Rosa, round out the dozen.
Some of the children celebrate milestone events near each other, which Cannon admits can make things difficult. “It’s the ones when it’s super close — even some of the birthdays that are different years, but their birthdays are still close — that can get a little challenging,” he said.
