How Being A Father To 12 Kids Has Affected Nick Cannon's Dating Life

Nick Cannon is a little too busy to date. The television personality has been pretty candid when speaking about his lifestyle and choice to have many children with several different women and how it has affected his dating life. In an April appearance on "The Howard Stern Show," Cannon spoke about the topic and why it's tough for him. "I'm not out there like that. I'm not dating. I'm really trying to focus on myself and my children. ... My bandwidth doesn't even allow me to kind of be in that space," he told Stern. "It sounds wild, but my main focus is either my children or work," he added, stating that he has a "healthy balance" between his kids and his career. Cannon also noted that at the advice of his therapist, he remained celibate for nine months, but it didn't quite work because he "had like more kids after that."

His interview with Stern is not the first time Cannon has spoken frankly about dating with so many kids. In March, the star chatted with "Stepping Into the Shade Room," sharing more views on his love life and how dating works in his equation. "My focus now is my children and then my business. I literally don't have time," he confessed. "I don't have that energy. I don't have that bandwidth. I feel like I'd do a disservice to my family if I'm out here looking for love." At least he's honest about it!
