Nick Cannon teases he's set to welcome 13th baby months after daughter's birth

Nick Cannon could be about to become a dad once again just three months after welcoming baby number 12.

The TV host, 42, took to social media on Monday to drop the potential bombshell, telling his 6 million Instagram followers there was big news ahead.

On his Instagram Story, he simply wrote: "Expect some big news tomorrow..." followed by the eyes emoji and a baby's milk bottle symbol.

He popped the same message on his Twitter, leaving fans rushing to the comments section to speculate on what he meant.

While one user jokingly asked if he'd had a vasectomy, most replies believed he was about to reveal he is to father another child, with jokes flowing freely.

One user jibed: "This isn't big news this is your normal...another added to the lineup," while another mocked: "ANOTHER BABY? Is @NickCannon about to live the reality of Cheaper By The Dozen?!"

A third account asked: "You starting your own NBA team?!," while a fourth similarly joked: "This man bout to have a whole basketball team roster worth of kids."

The news will follow the Drumline actor's introduction of baby Halo Marie three months ago to Alyssa Scott.

The couple are also parents to their late son Zen Cannon, who died in December 2021 following a brain tumour.

Just weeks ago Nick teased he might father more children in the future. At the time he admitted he was to let "God decide".

He confessed he does have his "hands full" with his current brood, but insisted there is always room for more.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight last month, Nick said: "God decides when we're done." Before adding: "I'm locked in. But when I'm 85, you never know. I might."

He is already the father of 11-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey, as well as a dad to 10 other children with five different women in what he calls 'consensual non-monogamy.

It's reported he currently pays in the region of $3million a year in child support and says his kids are his motivation for his work.

His plan, he says, is to be able to offer each one of them a future where they can pursue their passions, whatever they may be.
