How Old Are Nick Cannon’s Kids in 2021? Who Are the Moms?

Nick Cannon and Abby De La Rosa are preparing for twins, and this isn't the first time Cannon's gone through this. He also has twins with singer Mariah Carey, and he has two kids with model Brittany Bell. Here's how old his other four children are, and a bit about the moms.

Nick Cannon is gearing up to be a dad — again! Abby De La Rosa posted she’s pregnant with twins, and Cannon is the father. This isn’t the first time The Masked Singer host is in the spotlight for his children, either. He has four kids with other women. So, how old are Nick Cannon’s kids in 2021, and who are the moms? What was Nick Cannon’s age when he started having little ones? Here’s what we know.

Two of Nick Cannon’s kids are twins — and he’s about to get a second set. Abby De La Rosa, an international DJ, posted to Instagram about her pregnancy, and she included photos of her and Cannon (featuring the baby bump, of course).

“Our dearest sons — my miracle babies,” De La Rosa wrote on Instagram. “Thank you for choosing me to be your Mommy. I know the Lord has destined me and prepared me for the gift of not one but two little angels. I pray that God gives you both the strength to walk brave and boldly in your individual truth just like your Daddy.” 

It’s unclear when Cannon and De La Rosa met, as Cannon was connected with Brittany Bell at the end of 2020. Bell and Cannon welcomed a child together at the end of last year, but they’re no longer together now.

Nick Cannon’s kids are growing up fast. He had his first two kids with Mariah Carey. Twins Monroe and Moroccan were born in 2011, Newsweek reports. Then, Cannon had a son, Golden, with Bell in 2017. Finally, he had a daughter, Powerful Queen, with Bell in December 2020.

Today, Monroe and Moroccan are 9 years old. Golden is 3, and Powerful Queen is just about 6 months old.

Cannon and Carey divorced years ago, but they know how to best co-parent their kids. “We got our egos and our selfish behavior, when you put your children first, you realize that it is all unconditional love,” Cannon shared with Us Weekly. “All of that other stuff just falls apart.”

“I love being a father,” he added. “A father is the greatest blessing and greatest responsibility that can ever be bestowed on you. So hopefully I can do it again, too.”

While Carey is well-known, Bell might not be. She’s a model best known as Miss Guam in 2014 and Miss Arizona USA in 2010. When her second child with Cannon was conceived, Jessica White, Cannon’s on-and-off girlfriend, explained the situation on Instagram.

“Nick and I have been together off and on for years,” White said. “Their new child was conceived when we had temporarily broken up. Any child is a blessing. This is the last time I will answer these questions. I am no home-wrecker at all.”

So, what is Nick Cannon’s age in 2021? He’s 40 years old and will turn 41 in October 2021. De La Rosa is currently 29 years old and will turn 30 in 2021.

As for Nick Cannon’s age when he started having kids, he was 31. He married Carey when he was around 27 years old. Today, Carey is 52, and the only kids she ever had were with Cannon.

Carey has a unique philosophy around counting the years she’s been alive, too. “I don’t count years but I definitely rebuke them,” she told Out Magazine back in 2014. “I have anniversaries, not birthdays, because I celebrate life, darling.” She also later told People she has to “remain eternally oblivious to age.”

No matter what Carey says, we’re sure Nick Cannon’s kids are happily celebrating their birthdays and counting how old they are. And we’re looking forward to hearing more about De La Rosa’s pregnancy.
