The oldest Nick Cannon Children are officially teenagers!
The TV star took to social media on Tuesday, April 30, to celebrate twins’ 13th birthday Moroccan And Monroewhich he shares with his ex-wife MariahCarey. Not only did he pen a heartfelt message for the big day, but he also posted a photo of himself with his arms around the children’s shoulders, all wearing matching T-shirts that read “Roc + Roe” with their faces superimposed over the “O’s.”
“I can’t believe that 13 years ago I was blessed with the greatest gift of becoming a father!!,” he wrote. “God has truly put his hand on the lives of two of the most loving, kind, intelligent and well-rounded people I have ever known!”
He continued, “Thank you for teaching me how to love every day and thank you for letting me be your dad! I’ll get it right someday I promise!! And now let’s celebrate again! I love you Roc and Roe!! Happy birthday!!!”
Cannon, as you may recall, has come under fire for the number of children he has. Moroccan and Monroe are the eldest of 12 siblings, and the former Nickelodeon star has become a laughing stock for having them with six different women, but he says, “The more the merrier!”
While most of his children were unplanned, Cannon has spoken of “deep moments” where he “communicated with spirits,” which he compares to “manifestations or even…visions” that told him, “Yo, you’re going to be the father of many children. You’re going to have a big impact, your lineage, your descendants are going to do great things,” which is why he’s more than happy to let God decide how many children he’ll have over the course of his life.
But while they love to tease him about his huge family, his fans are also the first to praise him for making the time he spends with each child a top priority.
