“I’m still not made for marriage”: Mariah Carey’s ex-husband on monogamy and the expectation of an eighth child

_____________________________

41-year-old American actor, comedian and author’s TV show host Nick Cannon is a well-known heartthrob with dozens of novels to his credit. The most striking of these was Cannon’s 8-year marriage to singer Mariah Carey. Now the actor has a new girlfriend – model Bre Tisi, with whom, by the way, he is in no hurry to marry. Together they are waiting for the birth of Cannon’s eighth child. In a dialogue with People, the actor admitted that he worries every time a new baby is preparing to see the world.

I’m worried about all my children. Constantly. From receiving school awards to the birth of new children. It’s so exciting every time… Because it’s a miracle. God’s gift, he said.

In addition, when it comes to education, the actor describes himself as a “strict father”, or rather, a “discipline”, despite his cheerful disposition.

I also have older children. I put morality and family values ​​above all else. And it was laid in them from infancy,” he said.

However, despite the responsible attitude towards his offspring, the actor was not married to any of his girlfriends, except for the 52-year-old pop star Mariah Carey. On the eve of the podcast “It’s difficult with Raquel Harper,” he confirmed that he was no longer going to marry in the legal sense of the word.

Depends on what you call marriage. Government involvement – no. We can arrange some kind of intimate ceremony. Why would the government interfere in your privacy? It seems strange to me. This is a business, and connecting business and love is not an easy task, – the actor said philosophically.

The actor also admitted that he remained with the singer in warm friendly relations, despite the fact that he had a difficult divorce in 2016.

Divorce is the feeling that you have failed. And when this happens in front of everyone, it hurts doubly. I was broken and lost.

Apparently, the breakup has left an indelible mark on the actor’s attitude towards marriage, and now he has come to the conclusion that he does not “share the traditional understanding of monogamy” at all.

I’m still not made for marriage. Now I inform the women with whom I have children about my views on this issue right from the door. Not out of disrespect, but exactly the opposite,” he explained. “That means I want to be as honest as possible. If we can coexist together, great. If I can add something from myself, I will always do it. If I can’t, I shouldn’t be around.

Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey were married from 2008 to 2016. They have two common children – 11-year-old twins Monroe and Morocco. Cannon also has twins from a relationship with dancer Brittany Bell – 5-year-old Golden and one-year-old Powerful. A couple of twins to the actor gave birth to model and DJ Abby De La Rosa – Zion mixolidian and Zillion Hare “Zillie” now 9 months old. And another child of the presenter named Zen Son was born from model Alyssa Scott, who passed away in December last year from brain cancer. In total, over the past year, 2021, Cannon became the father of four children at once from three different women.
