Nick Cannon is now being treated in the hospital for pneumonia.
The “Masked Singer” host, who also has lupus, recently posted photographs on Instagram of himself wearing a face mask, a beanie, and a robe while resting in a hospital bed.
When he realized his mistake, he captioned it, “Okay, so I guess I’m not Superman…,” “I promised myself I would never return to this location…”
In contrast, the father of 11 children stated that he has learnt a “wonderful lesson” that “you must take care of YOU or YOU will not be able to take care of everyone else.”
“Don’t trip, I don’t need any good wishes or prayers, just some solid rest, and I’ll be back on the path to becoming stronger than I’ve ever been before,” Cannon pleaded to those who helped him.
He then informed his Twitter followers of the situation, writing, “It’s merely pneumonia, nothing I can’t manage.”
“It’s surreal to think that only the night before we performed in front of thousands of people at Madison Square Garden’s sold-out event, and now I’m sitting here alone in a cramped hospital room,” he wrote. “#LupusWarrior.”
On Thursday, Cannon brought his Wild ‘N Out tour to New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Cannon’s hospitalization coincides with his preparations to become a father for the 12th time, this time with Alyssa Scott, their second child. Zen died of a brain tumor in December 2021, when he was only 5 months old.
With his ex-wife Mariah Carey, he has Moroccan and Monroe twins; sons named Golden Sagon and Rise Messiah, as well as a daughter named Powerful Queen, with Brittany Bell; twins named Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, as well as a daughter named Beautiful Zeppelin, with Abby De La Rosa; a son named Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi; and a daughter named Onyx Ice Cole with LaNisha Cole
Cannon previously stated that he has “no idea” whether or not he will have any more children.
He chatted with Billboard News’ Tetris Kelly at the event Billboard Live: R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players, and during their conversation, he revealed that he is “happy right now” about the growing number of children in his family.
“Man, I don’t know,” Cannon said when asked if there would be any more babies. “I’m not certain. I think I’m doing really well right now!”
