Nick Cannon 'set to welcome baby number 12' as Alyssa Scott announces pregnancy

Nick Cannon is reportedly getting ready to welcome his 12th child, after Alyssa Scott took to Instagram to announce her pregnancy.

The model, who shares late son Zen with Nick, posted a snap of her blossoming baby bump on Wednesday as she held her daughter Zeela, with the mother-daughter duo wearing matching blue outfits.

"With you by my side…" she wrote and added a white heart emoji.

Fans rushed to share their congratulations, with one person commenting: "So happy for you! This is such a Blessing!"

Another said: "Congrats!!! You look so good Pregnant. You carry very well," while a third wrote: "Congrats! What a sweet blessing."

Alyssa later thanked her followers for "all the love" as she shared a series of black and white selfies.

A source told Entertainment Tonight that Nick is the father of Alyssa's unborn baby. The Mirror has approached Nick's representatives for comment.

Alyssa's pregnancy announcement comes almost a year after the death of her and Nick's son Zen.

Nick announced the devastating news that 5-month-old Zen had died of brain cancer on his since-cancelled daytime talk show. He was Nick's seventh child.

The TV host is also dad to twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey and he shares Golden Sagon, Powerful Queen and Rise Messiah with Brittany Bell.

Nick has twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir with Abby De La Rosa, who is currently pregnant and son Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi.

He recently welcomed daughter Onyx with LaNisha Cole.

Earlier this year, Nick and Alyssa revealed they were starting a foundation in honour of their late son, in the hope of helping to find a cure for paediatric cancer.

They both took to Instagram in June to unveil the Zen's Light Foundation. Its mission "is to foster global excellence in hope, grief-care, and paediatric healthcare for families and children in need."

Alyssa and Nick also attended a "lighting ceremony to honour the life of an angel" in commemoration of the occasion.
