Nick Cannon Details Group Chat With Baby Mamas Gone Wrong
Nick Cannon Sets the Record Straight on Where He Stands With Mariah Carey 10 Years After Divorce
Nick Cannon just barely made it out of this group chat.
The former America’s Got Talent host recently detailed that a short-lived group chat with Mariah Carey, Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Alyssa Scott, Bre Tiesi and LaNisha Cole—the six women with whom he shares 12 children—was not the most productive way to communicate.
“Tried it,” Cannon joked during the “On Par or Off The Rails” segment of the On Par with Maury Povich podcast Nov. 9. “Off the rails. Too wild for TV.”
And when host Maury Povich asked if Cannon’s current and former partners get along—Cannon is currently in an open relationship with De La Rosa and Tiesi, while maintaining co-parenting relationships with the other four women—the “Feelin’ Freaky” singer joked, “How do you define get along?”
Despite the joke, Cannon clarified that everyone is “civil,” but “everybody has their own life.”
Nevertheless, the 46-year-old maintained, “Putting them all in a group chat together? Not the best idea.”
Cannon also appeared to tease that his family dynamic will be explored in depth during his upcoming Netflix docuseries, scheduled for release sometime this winter. As he put it when Povich asked him if any of his partners get upset about him spending more time with some than others, he quipped, “It sounds like you’ve seen my docuseries already.”
Meanwhile, Cannon isn’t the only member of his family who has shared perspective on their unusual dynamic. Tiesi—who shares son Legendary Love, 4, with Cannon—recently revealed her one dealbreaker in their romance.
“If he has another baby, I’m outta there,” Tiesi shared during the Oct. 6 episode of the Lip Service podcast. “No more.”

In fact, she admitted the current size of Cannon’s family is already a lot to handle.
“I feel the guilt of not having enough time, having a career,” the 35-year-old explained. “You’ve got The Brady Bunch. We’re not doing 13.”
Trust, it certainly won’t be Tiesi welcoming another child with Cannon. The Selling Sunset alum emphasized she’s doing “everything” to ensure she stays a mom to just one kid.
“Never again, never,” she said of getting pregnant. “It’s a no. I’m a one and done.”
