We’re used to watching a lot of Nick Cannon’s personal life unfold in the public eye, but on the February 3 episode of “The Nick Cannon Show,” the host and comedian felt compelled to apologize for oversharing earlier that week.
Cannon had confirmed on “The Nick Cannon Show” (via Entertainment Tonight) on January 31 that he was expecting another child with Bre Tiesi, while also talking about the loss of his 5-month-old baby Zen, who died just months earlier. It looks like this was a problem for at least one very important person, Tiesi herself. On her Instagram Stories (via E! News), a day after Cannon’s on-stage announcement, Tiesi said, “I purposefully kept my pregnancy private for various reasons, and am horrified that this precious moment was exploited and plastered all over TMZ. This was not how I’d hope to share this news especially given that I’ve been able to protect this news for almost my entire pregnancy.”
This seems fair, and Cannon acknowledged his mistake. He apologized to all the mothers of his children, saying that he wants to respect their privacy. “And I know I can do better when dealing with delicate and sensitive discussions,” Cannon said. “So I promise you, I promise the mothers of my children, I promise my family that I would do better and continue to be more understanding, caring, compassionate, like they often show me each and every day.” All’s well that ends well, we guess!
