Nick Cannon reveals he pays over R50-million a year in child support
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
He can expect to fork out a little more with baby #12 due any day now!
Nick Cannon welcomed four children - from four different women - in 2022, and the proud father just revealed that he pays millions in child support for his kids.
A California family law attorney estimated that 'The Masked Singer' host forks out at least $3-million (R52-million) every year for all his kids.
"If he is taking home somewhere upward of $5-million a year, you have to look at what it would take to have the children kept in the lifestyle of both parents. Dad is clearly a public figure and makes a substantial income. The lifestyle has to be the same with mom as it is with dad," the attorney told the U.S. Sun.
Nick told 'The Neighborhood Talk' that he pays way more.
“I definitely spend a lot more than that on my children annually. I don't plan to ever have to participate in the governmental system of child," he said.
