Nick Cannon and Brittany Bell’s relationship timeline
Nick Cannon And Brittany Bell have welcomed three children, son Golden “Sagon” Cannon, daughter Powerful Queen Cannon and son Rise Messiah Cannon, as they have endured many ups and downs over the years.
Parents raised eyebrows when Bell seemingly disapproved of Cannon while sharing photos from her Christmas photo shoot via Instagram in December 2023. The glamorous snaps only showed Bell, who wore a gold dress, with her three little ones.
Less than two weeks later, however, Cannon was a key part of Powerful’s second anniversary. The proud father could be seen smiling everywhere photos and video footage while wearing a bright pink suit, which fits perfectly with the Barbie theme of the party.
Cannon – who has 12 children with six different women – previously called Bell “the rock and the foundation of [his] Fatherhood Journey” via Instagram in September 2022.
