- Nick Cannon mixed up some of his "handwritten" Mother's Day cards to the mothers of his children.
- Cannon said on his radio show that one of the six women ended up reading the wrong card.
Nick Cannon said he mixed up some of his "handwritten" Mother's Day cards to the six mothers of his 12 children.
Speaking on Monday's episode of his new radio show, "The Daily Cannon," Cannon — who has had nine children in the last three years alone — told his cohosts, including Abby De La Rosa, with whom he shares three kids, that he decided to make personal cards rather than buy the mothers gifts.
"I tried my best, I really did," Cannon said in a video shared on his Instagram page. "I thought it would be really, really good to show people how you really feel, write it down. And I was doing handwritten messages from the heart. Then, as I'm writing a handwritten message, I get the cards mixed up. So, when one baby mama reads the card about how I feel about the other baby mama..."
He continued: "See, if I would have just got some generic shit that everybody else got, that wouldn't have happened."
De La Rosa seemed shocked by his admission in the video. Cannon's other cohost, Courtney Bee Bledsoe, said that the mistake only occurred because the "Masked Singer" host was not focusing.
Cannon has twins with Mariah Carey, three children with Abby De La Rosa, another three children with Brittany Bell, two kids with Alyssa Scott, and a child each with Bre Tiesi and Lanisha Cole. Cannon's first child with Scott, Zen, died from brain cancer in December 2021.
However, in recent months, the "Wild 'n Out" host said that he is not looking to increase the number of children he has for the moment.
Last week during his appearance on "The Jason Lee Show", Cannon said: "We're very comfortable with the disciple dozen that I got. I'll keep my constellations at 12. 12 is a righteous number. I'm going to stay there."
Earlier this year, he also said on the "Howie Mandel Does Stuff" podcast: "I'm good with my dozen but there's no way to answer that question correctly because everyone has a problem with however I answer it, so I just say as of right now I have 12 and I'm very happy, but if — I don't know what's in store in the future."
