Nick Cannon reveals link between his 12 children’s names
  • Nick Cannon has opened up about becoming a father to 12 children with six different women, admitting he could have approached it differently.
  • During an appearance on The Breakfast Club, Cannon described his past actions as 'careless' and 'frivolous', attributing them to his financial resources and access.
  • He clarified that having 12 children was not a deliberate plan, but rather a result of living life spontaneously and believing he could handle the consequences.
  • Cannon reflected that if he had undertaken more 'inner work' and healing after his divorce, certain aspects of his life might have unfolded differently.
  • These recent comments follow a March interview where he stated he was 'pressing hold' on having more children for the time being, though he is not against it in the future.
