Television host Nick Cannon has grown his family once again. This new little one is Nick’s tenth child and his third with Brittany Bell, the former Miss Arizona USA. The couple announced in August that they were expecting.

The couple welcomed a son and chose to name him Rise Messiah Cannon. In his announcement, the father of 10 reflected on his role as a parent. “Another Blessing!!! As my journey on this planet becomes more and more remarkable and unfathomable, all I can do is thank God and continue to ask the Most High to order my steps. He has given me stewardship and dominion over a family dynamic that to some is unimaginable.”

In his post, Nick also expressed gratitude for his partner Brittany. “I am so indebted and grateful for the matriarch energy in my time of need. @missbbell has been the rock and foundation of my Fatherhood journey. She has taught me so much about parenting, psychology, spirituality, love and just life in general. For our third child she told me she didn’t want a baby shower and needed NOTHING! All she desired was PRAYER from her authentic Loved Ones! I am learning that is the best GIFT! She introduced me to the concept of a BlessingWay! As you can see in the video, a bunch of powerful prayer warriors interceding for our new child’s entrance to Earth! And boy did we need it! Probably the most difficult labor and delivery I have ever witnessed! 48 hours of excruciating pain and life risking danger to welcome 10 pounds of Love and joy named RISE MESSIAH CANNON.”

The Masked Singer host shares two other children with Brittany: son Golden and daughter Powerful Queen. Nick first became a father with his ex-wife singer Mariah Carey. The couple share twin children: Monroe and Moroccan Scott. Nick welcomed his ninth child in September with model LaNisha Cole, a daughter named Onyx Ice. Nick and model Alyssa Scott welcomed a son name Zen in 2021 but their little one sadly passed from brain cancer at 5 months old. In June, Nick welcomed a son named Legendary Love with model Bre Tiesi. Nick shares another set of twins – sons Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir – with DJ Abby De La Rosa. Nick and Abby are expecting another child together who is due to arrive this fall.

Congratulations to Nick on growing his family once again! We wish him and Brittany all the best welcoming Rise into the Cannon family.
