Nick Cannon is expecting his eighth baby just months after he suggested he has enough children already.
On Sunday afternoon, the singer, comedian, and The Nick Cannon Show host held a baby shower and gender reveal together with his pregnant girlfriend, model Breana Tiesi, in Malibu.
In pictures from the event, the 41-year-old TV host was seen smiling from ear to ear while cradling Tiesi’s baby bump.
Meanwhile, guests could be seen firing blue confetti into the air as it was time to reveal that the couple’s first child together is a baby boy.
The happy news was later confirmed by Nick who told the viewers of his show that he has known about Tiesi’s pregnancy for some time now – even before the news of Zen’s passing last month.
“I wanted to definitely respect the grieving process with Alyssa, and Bre was respectful enough. She held off making our announcements and speaking on social media. She’s a very, you know, in the public eye type of person, but keeps her stuff private as well,” the father-of-eight said.
“And it was just one of those things like, you know, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what to say when I was dealing with Zen or to hold off. Even right now, that it came out yesterday, that wasn’t planned to talk about it.
“We wanted to, you know, hold on as long as we can, but it happened. We here and I’m with my family I get to discuss it, I get to be open.”
The thrilling announcement comes just months after Mr. Cannon suggested he’s going celibate because he has enough children already.
“I’m trying to chill out though. I’m chilling out. I’m kinda stepping away, getting focused, going within, getting my celibacy on,” the 41-year-old told Drink Champs on October 1.
“I have enough children, enough frolicking. I’m good right now… I’m trying. I didn’t say I’m perfect. I love all my kids. I’m celibate right now. I’m trying to go – I’m gonna see if I can make it to 2022. I’m trying to be the best father I can be, the best businessman I can be.”
Congratulations to Nick and Bre!
