The 41-year-old star had tears flowing as he revealed his heartache, explaining that the child he shares with Alyssa Scott had a brain tumor. He admitted he was feeling 'vulnerable' publicly sharing the loss and dedicated the show 'to my son Zen.'
Cannon said he remained "hopeful" and "faithful" after the surgery, but also "embraced every moment" with his baby boy. He said he was "so grateful to my entire family for coming together" to spend time with Zen, as the star also has 10-year-old twins with Mariah Carey , 5-month-old twins with DJ Abby De La Rosa and two children with model Brittany Bell .
Cannon said he devotes his weekends to his kids, flying back to New York on Monday to tape his talk show. On Sunday morning, he brought Zen "to the ocean" to watch the sunrise and recalled "holding my son for the last time."On the way to the airport soon after, he got the call to turn around. "Not only did we get to see the sun rise," Cannon said, fighting back tears, "but we saw the sun set too."He said he wasn't sure how to share the news publicly, saying he didn't want any "pageantry." But he's always been candid about his personal life, so he's living his motto, "You don't just go through it, you grow through it," by sharing the news on his show.
Cannon also said he's relying on his faith in God to get him through his grief. He said the episode would be a "special show dedicated to my son Zen," and he shared multiple pictures of the beautiful baby boy throughout.
