Nick Cannon admits he indulged in ‘crazy antics’ while married to Mariah Carey: It was ‘madness’

Nick Cannon indulged in “crazy antics” while with his ex-wife Mariah Carey.

The 43-year-old has 12 children with various women, including 13-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with singer Mariah, 55, to whom he was married for six years before they split in 2014.

He has now said at the Fox Fall Press Day about his recent comments he would “absolutely” get back together with his ex: “Yeah, she don’t want me. She’s moved on from my crazy antics.”

Nick told E! News in August he hoped he and Mariah could give their relationship a second try.

He said at the time: “We belong together,” before adding he would “absolutely” get back together with the five-time Grammy winner – adding it would be “stupid” if they didn’t.

Since splitting, Nick and Mariah have been co-parenting their twins, with the TV host having 10 more children with a total of five other partners.

He also said at the Fox event about how he is a difficult co-parenting companion: “Yeah, I mean, to (my exes’) credit, you know what I mean? Dealing with me must be madness.

But he insists he is a devoted father, telling People: “At the end of the day, if you put the kids first and remove ego, you can do anything.

He added about how he had enjoyed a “great summer” with his huge family: “We hung out in Malibu, travelled and went to the beach a lot. So I think all the kids really enjoyed themselves.”

Nick also told the outlet about how he was enjoying seeing his kids get back to school season: “It reminds me of when I was in school, school shopping for clothes, getting the kids excited.”

He admitted about one of his children struggling with sitting in lessons: “I have a seven-year-old in fourth grade (son Golden Sagon), and he’s just so smart that even school is boring to him.

“So it’s like getting him re-engaged and excited because he had so much fun during the summer.

“So, all right, ‘We can still have just as much fun during the school year’, but it’s kind of just keeping the excitement.”
