Nick Cannon: Comedian Announces Death Of Five-Month-Old Son Zen

Nick Cannon has announced that his five-month-old son Zen has died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour.

The America’s Got Talent and Masked Singer US host confirmed the news during The Nick Cannon Show on Tuesday.

He called the episode a “celebration of life” for his late son, who died last weekend.

Cannon recalled the moment he and his partner, model Alyssa Scott, were told that Zen had hydrocephalus – a build-up of fluid in the brain.

Zen underwent surgery, Cannon explained, but suffered “an interesting turn” during Thanksgiving [25 November] and the “process sped up”.

Before his son died, Cannon said they took him to the ocean and held his hand for a final time.

“We have the word widower for when a husband or wife loses their spouse,” noted one person [Wanda Roe in Twitter comments] online. “We have the word orphan for when a child loses their parent. But we have no word for when a parent loses their child.”

Cannon has seven children, including Zen, the eldest two from his marriage to ex wife and pop superstar Mariah Carey.
