Nick Cannon has insisted the mothers of his children “don’t have to” all get along.

The TV host is currently expecting his eighth child with Bre Tiesi, and also shares 11-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with his ex-wife Mariah Carey, son Golden and daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell, and twins Zion and Zillion with Abby De La Rosa. Sadly, his son Zen, whom he shared with Alyssa Scott, died at the age of five months following a battle with cancer in December.

During a recent appearance on The Big Tigger Morning Show, Nick was asked whether “all the baby mamas get along”.

“They don’t have to, they all get along with me,” he replied.

Nick went on to explain that he didn’t originally imagine having such a big family.

“I just want to be responsible as a father … I didn’t set out (for this to happen) … I just want to be the best father I can possibly be, and lean into it,” the 41-year-old continued. “I embrace all my children, I love children, but I wasn’t setting out to be Father Abraham, I just embrace it. A lot of people have a lot of children as well and they kinda keep it quiet or they don’t talk about it, I lean into mine.”

However, Nick insisted he has no desire to get married again.

“Absolutely not. I mean, I love the romance of it. I could see myself with a life partner but (not) putting the government in my relationship,” he added.
