Nick Cannon says he has more children on the way after welcoming three babies last year.

In October 2021, Cannon told Revolt's "Drink Champs" that he would try to be celibate until 2022, after the birth of his seventh child. However, in January, the "Wild 'N Out" host shared on his morning talk show, "Nick Cannon," that he is expecting another child with model Bri Tiesi.

On Tuesday's episode of the "Lip Service" podcast, Cannon was asked about rumors that he is expecting three more children.

Cannon joked: "When you say on the way... What count are you at? Let's just put it this way ... the stork is on the way."

He added: "If you thought it was a lot of kids last year."

Cannon did not specify how many children he is expecting, but in 2021 he had twins with DJ Abby De La Rosa and a son with Alyssa Scott. Cannon also has two children with model Brittany Bell, and twins with Grammy award-winning singer Mariah Carey.

In January, Cannon said that his therapist had suggested celibacy after the TV host told them about his eighth child with Bri Tiesi last year.

Cannon told the "Lip Service" podcast that he broke his celibacy in December after the death of his son, Zen, who died of a tumor in December at 5 months old.

Cannon said: "I didn't even make it to January. I was supposed to make it to the top of the year. Then obviously I started going through some stuff. I got depressed with the loss of my son. So in December, everybody saw I was so down. So everybody was like, 'Let's just give him a little vagina, and that's gonna cure it all.'"

He continued: "I fell victim to it 'cause I was in a weak state. So December, especially right before Christmas, I started fucking like crazy. So I broke the celibacy. But I was probably celibate for a month and a half strong. I was trying to do it. I had a new show, new energy, I was dealing with a lot."

In the last few months, Cannon has talked about his growing family. During an interview on E! News' "Daily Pop" show last month, Cannon told hosts Justin Sylvester and Loni Love that he wants to focus on the children he already has and has had a vasectomy consultation.

In February, Cannon told Dr. Laura Berman on "The Language of Love" podcast that he didn't have the "bandwidth" for more children.

The "Masked Singer" host also said on the podcast that he had "heavy, heavy guilt" for not spending enough time with all of his children, especially Zen before his passing.
