How Nick Cannon plans to keep his kids in touch while he waits for two more
Nick Cannon appreciates honesty and makes sure that everyone is in the loop, telling Insider Hollywood Life exclusively about his nine and counting children.
Nick Cannon surprised fans when he welcomed baby number 9 to his ever-growing brood in September. 15. He revealed that he and Lanisha Cole had a daughter named Onyx, which is the couple’s first and Lanisha’s firstborn child overall. The announcement came as a huge shock to fans, considering Nick, 41, is currently expecting two more children: one with model Brittany Bell, with whom he has a son, Golden, 4, and a daughter, Strong, 1, and one with model Abby de la Rosa, with whom he shares twins zillion and Zion, who are 1 year old. With so many children to take care of, it’s easy to wonder how he can commit to everyone, but according to Hollywood Life sources, he does an amazing job.
“Nick knows everyone is wondering how he can make this work but so far things are very smooth,” an insider told you exclusively. “He is very guarded with his schedule and makes sure that everyone is in the loop. Nick wants all his children to know each other, bond, talks with his older children about it and is very honest with them.”
A second person close to the Wild host also noted that Nick’s completely honest approach to his relationships with his baby mama and his children makes his situation work well. “All the women he has children with are kept in the loop and are informed every time he has another child on the way,” they explained to HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. “He has open communication with all of them. Nick has always believed that transparency is important. It will not be fair to the mothers of his children, nor to the children themselves.”
They added that ” Nick has a similar arrangement with all the mothers of his children as he does with Mariah [Carey]. He has an incredible parenting situation going on and tries to spend equal time with all the children. This has always been important to Nick. The more children he has, the more he spreads, but he makes concerted efforts to do this.”
