Nick Cannon says he's 'not done' having children
During the conversation, former NFL players Ryan Clark and Channing Crowder opened up about undergoing vasectomies after having several children.
Crowder then turned his attention to Cannon, teasing him about considering the procedure.
“It’s another man at this table that needs to think about that s**t,” Crowder joked, referring to Cannon, who sat beside him.
“Feel like this is an intervention,” Cannon responded, before admitting that vasectomies were the “responsible thing to do.”
However, he quickly dismissed the idea, stating, “I just, I’m not done.”

As the conversation continued, Courtney Bee pressed Nick Cannon on whether he would have more children with one of his existing partners or seek a new woman.
“I don’t know,” Cannon admitted, adding, “That’s the thing. I leave it to the Lord.”
Cannon’s fatherhood journey began in 2011 when he welcomed twins Monroe and Moroccan, now 13, with his ex-wife, music icon Mariah Carey.
Since then, he has continued to grow his family with multiple women.
He shares sons Golden (8) and Rise (2), and daughter Powerful (4) with Brittany Bell, 3-year-old twins Zion and Zillion, and daughter Beautiful (2) with Abby De La Rosa, son Legendary (2) with Bre Tiesi, daughter Onyx (2) with LaNisha Cole, daughter Halo Marie (2), and late son Zen with Alyssa Scott.
Zen tragically died at 5 months old in December 2021 from brain cancer.
Despite having a busy personal life, Cannon insists he is fully committed to each of his children and their well-being, according to Page Six.

"And I’m so focused. I’m locked in. But when I’m 85, you never know. I might [have more],” he added.
