Nick Cannon's Relationship Podcast Sparks Online Mockery
Nick Cannon's Relationship Podcast Sparks Online Mockery

Nick Cannon has faced widespread mockery on social media after announcing a new relationship podcast, given his personal history as a father of 12 children with six different partners.

The 44-year-old entertainer's show, Nick Cannon @ Night, will launch on Wondery from 23 July. A promotional statement says Cannon has 'never shied away' from his personal life, leaving 'the world curious about his views on dating, fatherhood and modern relationships'. The podcast will be recorded before a live audience in Los Angeles, featuring experts and celebrity guests.

On X, users were quick to criticise the concept. One wrote: 'He's the last person to give advice about relationships.' Another commented: 'He is certified to give fertility advice not relationship advice.' A third joked: 'Getting relationship advice from Nick Cannon would be like getting sobriety advice from an alcoholic.'

Cannon, who shares children with Mariah Carey, Alyssa Scott, Abby De La Rosa, Bre Tiesi, LaNisha Cole and Brittany Bell, previously told Entertainment Tonight that 'God decides when we’re done' having children, adding: 'But when I’m 85, you never know. I might.' He has also spoken about prioritising 'energy management' over time management to balance his parenting duties, and admitted that not spending enough time with his children is his 'biggest guilt'.
