Nick Cannon reveals 'complicated' Thanksgiving plans seeing his 11 children
Published in Entertainment News
Nick Cannon admits Thanksgiving is a "very complicated" time for him.
The 44-year-old star has to celebrate the holidays on Thursday (28.11.24) with his 11 children, and he joked he is "going to be full by the end of the day" after doing the rounds to see his kids.
He told PEOPLE magazine: "It's very complicated. I'm a busy man on Thanksgiving. [I have] a bunch of dinners [I've] got to go to.
"I'm going to be full by the end of the day, but everybody specialises in certain things. some people got good sweet potato pie, some people got amazing fried turkey.
"So I know every house that needs to have the things that I really like."
The 'Wild 'n Out' host has 13-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-wife Mariah Carey, and kids Golden Sagon, seven, Powerful Queen, three, and Rise Messiah, two, with Brittany Bell.
He also has three-year-old twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, three, and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin, two, with Abby De La Rosa, as well as Legendary Love and Bre Tiesi, both two, with LaNisha Cole.
He and Alyssa Scott have daughter Halo Marie - who will turn two next month - together, while their son Zen died at just five months old from brain cancer in December 2021.
On Wednesday (27.11.24), he was volunteering at the LA Mission Thanksgiving charity event, which serves over 4,000 free meals and offers over 2,000 items of clothing to those in need, as well as free manicures, pedicures and haircuts.
Nick is determined to keep helping out after his grandmother taught him the importance of giving back when you already have so much.
He added: "The best part about any holiday is to be able to be of service. And that's what I feel like life is really about.
"When you can get to a space where you have more fun being of service and doing for others, I think that's when you reach the zenith of what life is all about."
