Earlier this week, it was announced that TV host and father of seven Nick Cannon was expecting his eighth child. The news came less than two months after the tragic news of Nick's youngest son Zen's death in December.
Now, the 41-year-old is opening up about his decision to embark on a "celibacy journey" during a new episode of his eponymous talk show.
The Masked Singer host is already dad to Mariah Carey's 10-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe, 4-year-old Golden and 1-year-old Powerful Queen, who he shares with Brittany Bell, and 7-month-old twins, Zion and Zillion, who he shares with Abby De La Rosa.
As it turns out, Nick's girlfriend Bre Tiesi was pregnant at the time but held off sharing the announcement out of respect for Zen's mother, Alyssa Scott.
"My therapist was one of the [people] who said I should probably be celibate and the reason why is because I had shared that news about Bre being pregnant," he said on the show, as per People.
"I felt like I was out of control and honestly, celibacy did help me through the journey of getting one with myself and being able to deal with this," he added.
Well, as long as Nick is happy and the children he fathered are loved and being taken care of, that's all we can really ask!
