Alyssa Scott: Get To Know the Mother of Nick Cannon's Son Zen Who Passed Away Tragically

Alyssa Scott is the mother of Nick Cannon's late son, Zen. She and Cannon supported each other after Zen's passing, while the host expected his eighth child with another woman.

Nick Cannon has had complex relationships that seemed to happen one after the other. His intense love life resulted in multiple children with different women from different backgrounds.

The television personality became a first-time dad in 2011 when his then-wife, Mariah Carey, gave birth to twins Moroccan and Monroe.

Cannon later welcomed a son, Golden, and a daughter, Powerful, with Brittany Bell, and twins, Zillion and Zion, with Abby De La Rosa. The "Wild N Out" host was over the moon every time his brood expanded, but he also experienced a tragic loss when his son, Zen, passed away. Cannon shares his late son with Alyssa Scott.

WHO IS ALYSSA SCOTT, THE MOTHER OF NICK CANNON'S LATE SON ZEN?

Scott is a model by profession who routinely shares her photos on Instagram with over 250,000 followers. More often than not, she sports swimwear and lingerie on her social media platform.

Apart from her professional career, not much is known about Scott, not even her age bracket. Scott likely met Cannon when she participated in his MTV game show, "Wild N Out," although she never posted photos from the production.

Rumors of their relationship began in 2020 when she was spotted on a date with Cannon during her birthday. They also looked cozy next to each other at that time.

In May 2022, rumors about another pregnancy surfaced on the internet as Scott posted a photo showing an apparent baby bump. People shared their thoughts online, speculating that the child was Cannon's again.

Scott's name resurfaced on social media on May 20, 2021, after she posed with her pregnant belly and revealed the name of her then unborn child. Although she shared her pregnancy with the public, Scott did not disclose details about her son's father.

However, she suggested that Cannon was her baby daddy after calling her son Zen S. Cannon in the comments section. Scott gave birth to Zen in June 2021, bringing overwhelming joy to her life.

Sadly, the happiness was taken away five months later when Zen died of a brain tumor in December 2021. Cannon confirmed the news during a television broadcast, saying:

"Over the weekend, I lost my youngest son to a condition called hydrocephalus, brain cancer. It's tough, and I have my therapist here, who's been helping us through it."

In 2021, Scott still celebrated her child's birthday despite his demise. "I always try my best to remain positive, but right now, I can't help but cry out 'it's not supposed to be like this,'" she wrote in a post."

IS ALYSSA SCOTT PREGNANT?

In May 2022, rumors about another pregnancy surfaced on the internet as Scott posted a photo showing an apparent baby bump. People shared their thoughts online, speculating that the child was Cannon's again. One person said:

"Another thing I find weird is that Alyssa Scott is pregnant by Nick again only a few months after losing the baby and completely ignoring the fact that he was knocking someone else up while their baby was dying."

Scott hasn't confirmed nor denied the rumors surrounding her alleged pregnancy, so fans will have to wait and see whether she clears the air.

WHAT IS NICK CANNON AND ALYSSA SCOTT'S RELATIONSHIP LIKE NOW?

Following their son's death, Cannon and Scott have been supportive of each other. "Alyssa was the strongest woman I've ever seen," the "Masked Singer" star praised his ex. "She was always the best mom and continues to be the best mom possible."

Scott was expecting his eighth child with Bre Tiesi shortly after Zen's passing. Scott had no ill feelings towards his ex and his new family and even wrote on Instagram, "I am centered, I am at peace. I look at everyone's predicament with loving eyes. I will not judge."

Nick Cannon is fully aware that people may find his set-up as a father unorthodox. However, he revealed that he has been having all his kids on purpose because "you only live once."
