Nick Cannon Feels 'Heavy Guilt' About Not Spending More Time With Late Son Zen: 'Keeps Me Up At Night'

There is nothing more painful for a parent than losing their child, and that’s something Nick Cannon is still in the beginning of processing.

In a candid interview with Dr. Laura Berman, his friend and therapist, on her podcast The Language of Love this week, the talk show host opened up about how difficult it has been for him to move forward after his 5-month-old son Zen, whom he shared with model Alyssa Scott, passed away in December.

That’s so sad. Nick announced that Zen passed away in December after suffering from a brain tumor. The baby had undergone treatment, but his health deteriorated quickly.

In January, Alyssa revealed that the parents had known since August that Zen’s time on Earth would be “limited.” On his talk show, the All That alum insisted he “made a valid effort to spend the most quality time” he could with his seventh child, but of course, there’s never enough time when you lose a kid that young.
