Nick Cannon is said to be expecting his eighth child and naturally looked overjoyed as he celebrated the news at Bre Tiesi’s baby shower.
The Wild N Out host took centre stage at the lavish party, which was held in Malibu, California on Sunday and wore matching white outfits with the mum-to-be.
At one point, Nick and Bre were surrounded by the group of guests as the comedian cradled her baby bump. It appears the pair had kept the baby’s gender under wraps as both blue and pink balloons were seen decorating the beach.
However, a gender reveal took place with blue confetti spilling out over Nick and Bre, suggesting they are expecting a baby boy.
It will be Nick’s eighth child and, according to Page Six, Bre’s first.
It’s not known when the pair began dating but Bre is believed to have known Nick for six years.
The influencer appears on the Wild N Out Girl podcast, having worked on Nick’s long-running sketch show since 2016. She is also said to be a licensed real estate agent and runs the fitness app Body By Bre.

Bre was previously married to NFL player Johnny Manziel, with their divorce reportedly finalised in November after a year of marriage. Following their marriage split, Bre went on to date Jennifer Lopez’s ex-boyfriend and dancer Casper Smart for 10 months until December 2020.
The baby news comes just weeks after Nick’s youngest son, Zen, died at five months old following a brain tumour.
He confirmed the news in an emotional segment on The Nick Cannon Show last month, telling viewers that the baby he welcomed with Alyssa Scott had died.

Nick, who is also dad to Powerful Queen, Zion, Zillion, Golden, Moroccan and Monroe, explained that his brood have helped him deal with his grief.
‘Having to explain that to 10-year-olds [Moroccan and Monroe] and a four-year-old [Golden] is pretty intense,’ he previously said on his loss.
‘But their understanding and them being there for me probably helped me keep it together as well as really deal with it. Specifically, even, Roc and Roe. They were there for the entire journey.’
Nick, 41, also described it as a ‘blessing’ that he was able to be with Zen for his final moments.

‘I see it as a blessing that I got to be there,’ he added. ‘Alyssa says, “I think he was just waiting for you”.’
Nick and Alyssa Scott welcomed Zen in June, around the same time he welcomed twins Zion and Zillionaire with Abby De La Rosa. He is also father to twins Moroccan and Monroe who he shares with ex-wife Mariah Carey, and son Sagon and daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell.
