The 41-year-old actor/host added that he held off on announcing it because he wanted to ‘respect the grieving process of Alyssa [Scott],’ the mother of Zen.

During Monday’s episode of The Nick Cannon Show, he said that he knew about Bre’s pregnancy ‘for a while,’ even before the death of his son Zen on December 5.
He said: ‘So even going through all of that, this was always in the back of my mind, like, “What is the right time? How do I share this?” No one, we didn’t expect Zen to pass away… All of the news was so unexpected.’
‘I wanted to definitely respect the grieving process with Alyssa, and Bre was respectful enough – She held off making our announcements and speaking on social media. She’s a very, you know, in the public eye type of person, but keeps her stuff private as well,’ he said on his show.

Are they on or off? It is unclear if they are involved romantically as well
‘And it was just one of those things like, you know, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what to say when I was dealing with Zen or to hold off. Even right now, that it came out yesterday, that wasn’t planned to talk about it,’ he said, speaking of the gender reveal snaps.
‘We wanted to, you know, hold on as long as we can, but it happened. We here and I’m with my family I get to discuss it, I get to be open.’
At the intimate Malibu gathering, Bre showed off her burgeoning bump in a strapless white minidress featuring a big bow in the back with matching spike-heeled pumps.
