Elon Musk and other celebs with a whole lot of children

Nick Cannon is expecting his eighth child with Bre Tiesi after welcoming four babies with three different women in 2021. Towards the end of 2021, he spoke about slowing down and even practicing celibacy for a while, but it looks like he's back to his reproductive ways. Cannon appeared on a podcast on June 7 and foreshadowed even more baby news for this year! "The stork is on the way," he proclaimed, "If you thought the numbers I put up in 2021 was…wait 'til 2022!" Abby De La Rosa, who gave birth to twins with Nick Cannon in 2021, recently revealed that she is pregnant again, with many assuming that Cannon is the father.

When asked about his attitude towards sex, relationships, and children, Cannon said, "I'm at a point in my life, I don't want to have pointless sex. This needs to be something. We need to reach a certain level emotionally, spiritually," he said. "And that's probably why it ends up in children because I'm not interacting with anybody that I don't really have a true love and, like, I want to build something with."

Nick Cannon -

Nick Cannon made headlines in 2021 when it was revealed that he'd had four kids with three different women in under a year, putting him at a total of seven. He has twins with Mariah Carey, two children with model Brittany Bell, twins with DJ Abby De La Rosa, and he welcomed his seventh child with influencer Alyssa Scott in June 2021, though he tragically lost the latter after the infant passed away from a brain cancer.

The Nickelodeon alum defended his choices to have many children: "I'm having these kids on purpose," he said during his Power 106 Los Angeles radio show on July 7. But after his seventh, he did claim that he was going to take a break from extending his family. Then started gearing up to be a father for the eighth time. Cannon and model Brie Tiesi are expecting a baby boy together, it was revealed after photos of their sex reveal party surfaced on January 30.

Elon Musk and other celebs with a whole lot of children

The Tesla founder is currently a father of seven

22/06/22 | StarsInsider

CELEBRITY Family

There's wanting a big family, and then there's having more than five kids. Somewhat surprisingly, this reality isn't too uncommon in the world of showbiz. In fact, there are several celebs with 10 kids or more! Some of these stars have flown under the radar, but now we're telling you exactly how many children they have.

Following the news that Elon Musk's transgender daughter, Vivian, is seeking a legal name change because, she says, "I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form," many were surprised to learn that Musk is a father to many children—seven, in fact. Starting in 2002, he had six children with Canadian author Justine Wilson, and his last two were with singer-songwriter Grimes. He and Wilson lost their first son Nevada Alexander at 10-weeks-old. They later welcomed twins Vivian Jenna Wilson and Griffin, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian. X Æ A-12 and Exa Dark Sideræl were born in 2019 and 2021, respectively.
