Nick Cannon has a dozen children already with six different mothers, but he has some regret about the one woman he wished he had another child with. There’s one who seems to have gotten away.
Cannon opened up to Thembi Mawema on a new episode of “Stepping Into The Shade Room” about his love life.
Mawema asked what seems like a crazy question of Cannon who is 42. She wanted to know if there were any women he regretted not procreating with from his past.
“Is there anyone who you dated in the past that you were like ‘You know what, I wish we would have had a baby’?” she asks Cannon.
Cannon did not hesitate, even admitting, “I know (this) is going to go viral.”
“When Christina Milian and I were doing ‘Love Don’t Cost A Thing’ … I remember when I found out she was pregnant. Did I have kids yet? I don’t know, but I was like, dang man,” Cannon replied.
Mawema interjects, “That could have been me?”
“Yeah yeah yeah,” Cannon replied. “I was so happy for her. I remember we was kids in love early on, and so we talked about that, but to each his own. Life plans it out. The universe gives it how it’s supposed to be given.”
Cannon and Milian, who is 41, were co-stars in 2003’s “Love Don’t Cost A Thing” and they dated after the film’s debut, but broke up when Milian found out Cannon had been unfaithful.
She announced in 2009 that she was expecting her first child with then-husband The-Dream. Today, the singer and actor is a mom of three.
“I have a tribe of young, impressionable brilliant minds that I can help cultivate to be whatever they want to be. That’s the blessing I’ve been given,” Cannon told Mawema of his children. “There’s nothing in this world that they can’t do or have access to, because I can make it happen.”
