Nick Cannon has revealed the devastating news that his 5-month-old son Zen has passed away following a battle with brain cancer.
The TV personality shared the news on his talk show Tuesday revealing the infant was diagnosed with a brain tumor earlier this year during what was thought to be a routine check-up.
“I always noticed he had a cough and so I wanted to check it out,” he said. “He had this interesting breathing and by the time he was two months, I noticed he had this nice sized head too — a Cannon head. We didn’t think anything of it. But I wanted to take him to the doctor for his sinus and breathing. We thought it would be routine.”
Cannon said things took a turn for the worse around Thanksgiving and Zen passed away on Dec. 5.
Cannon and model Alyssa Scott welcomed Zen back in June.
