Comedian Nick Cannon is reportedly set to welcome his eight child – folllowing the tragic death of his son.
The star, who used to be married to pop singer Mariah Carey, is allegedly expecting a new baby with real estate agent Bre Tiesi.
According to TMZ, the pair held a baby shower for the bub in Malibu, and they revealed that the baby is a boy.
Photos published by the outlet show Nick wrapping his arm around Bre, who is cradling what appears to be a baby bump in a white dress.
The pair are surrounded by a group firing confetti cannons to celebrate the occasion.
It comes after Nick tragically lost his youngest boy Zen to brain cancer in December of last year.
41-year-old Nick had shared his son with model Alyssa Scott.
The dad also shares his ten-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with Mariah Carey.
He is also a father to four-year-old Sagon, and Powerful Queen, 1, with model Brittany Bell.

The TV presenter and rapper shares seven-months-old twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir with Abby De La Rosa.
It comes after Nick revealed the heartbreaking news that his son Zen had died from brain cancer.
He announced the news on his Nick Cannon Show – and it came as a shock to viewers as he’d kept his diagnosis private.
Nick said: “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.”

The presenter explained that Zen’s brain tumour had grown rapidly, with his condition deteriorating over Thanksgiving.
Nick explained that they thought Zen had developed a sinus issue at around two months old.
He said: “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.”
However, doctors later found a tumour, but Zen’s state didn’t improve despite emergency surgery.
