Baby No. 12 is here! And she (yes, she!) came right before Christmas. A year after the death of their baby boy Zen, Nick Cannon and Alyssa Scott welcomed their rainbow baby, Halo Marie Cannon. More inside…
Nick Cannon just welcomed his 12th child! The baby marks his fourth child born in 2022.
Mr. NCredible, 42, and “Wild ’N Out” star Alyssa Scott, 29, welcomed their second baby together a month after announcing a new bundle of joy was on the way.
Along with a birthday video, Alyssa took to social media to announce her and Nick’s daughter was born on December 14th, and they named her Halo Marie Cannon.
“Our lives are forever changed,” Alyssa started off the caption.
Halo’s birth comes a year after the death of Nick and Alyssa’s 5-month-old son, Zen, who died on December 5, 2021, following a battle with brain cancer.
”Zen is in every breath I take,” Alyssa continued. “I know his spirit was with us in the room that morning. I know he is watching down on us. He shows me signs everyday. I will hold onto this memory forever.”
In the video, you could tell Nick and Alyssa were shocked to learn they had a baby girl, which means they likely kept the sex of the baby under wraps.
”I will remember the sound of Nicks voice saying ‘it’s a girl’ and the look of everything we’ve been through flash across his face,” she continued. “I will remember the sound of her crying out with her first breath and feeling her heartbeat against mine. My sweet girl, I got my surprise!! We love you Halo Marie Cannon!”
The new addition is Alyssa’s third child. She has a 4-year-old daughter, named Zeela, from a previous relationship.
Shortly after Halo’s arrival announcement, Alyssa began sharing photos of their baby girl:
Aww! She’s adorable.
On the way to the hospital, Alyssa said she saw a meteor shower, and then she saw fireworks from her hospital window.
”I just know my boy was celebrating,” she wrote, referencing her and Nick’s late son.
Last month, Alyssa announced she and Nick were having another baby by posting photos from her maternity shoot on Instagram, showing off her growing baby bump, naked, in a tub with the “Wild ’N Out” honcho.
She shared photos from the day they first saw their baby girl on the monitor and hearing her heartbeat:
Leading up to baby Halo’s arrival, Alyssa shared more maternity flicks that featured the TV personality:
As you know, the King of Maternity Shoots is now a father of 12.
In addition to Halo and Zen, Nick shares 11-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan with his ex-wife Mariah Carey. He shares three children with his ex-Brittany Bell, including Golden Sagon, 5, Powerful Queen, 2, and 10-week-old Rise Messiah.
He’s dad to 18-month-old twins, Zion and Zillion, and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin, whom he shares with DJ Abby De La Rosa. He shares a 5-month-old son, Legendary Love, with “Wild ’N Out” girl Bre Tiesi. And he recently welcomed a daughter, Onyx Ice Cole, who is 3-months, with former video vixen-turned-photographer Lanisha Cole.
During a recent episode of Paramount+’s “The Checkup with Dr. David Agus.” the “Masked Singer” host opened up about how he is having a hard time juggling his career and his family life. He said he feels guilty he doesn’t get to spend enough time with them.
“Being a father of multiple kids, it’s always the biggest guilt on me is that I don’t get to spend enough time with all my children,” Nick shared. “One ’cause I’m constantly working and two because I’m just spread thin,” he continued.
Fans began to speculate all is not well in the Nick Cannon Harem when Lanisha blasted him over “fake photo shoots” with his other children and their mothers. Right after she called him out, she was posting videos of herself, Onyx and Nick together talking about how co-parenting is a “breeze when you see eye to eye.” Missed that? Catch up HERE.
Congrats to Nick & Alyssa.
