The 43-year-old explained that his ex-wife has been “really having a great time” with their 13-year-old twins, son Morrocan and daughter Monroe.

“That is, you know, the most important thing in the world to her, so it’s outstanding to see them supporting their mom the way they do,” Cannon added.

On September 14, Carey took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to show fans a glimpse of her recent time spent with their children.

“At the Great Wall of China! Someone should’ve warned me about heels (not that I would’ve listened),” Carey wrote at the time while sharing three photos of their visit to the popular landmark.

Furthermore, the singer did not shed light on the incidents that led to the tragic outcome for both her mom and sister.

Nick Cannon Opened Up About Raising Teenagers With Mariah Carey

According to Page Six, as the conversation continued, Cannon also opened up about raising teenagers with Carey. The 43-year-old reportedly called it the “scariest thing in the world.”

“My daughter, she’s wearing makeup now,” he explained, speaking about Monroe. “She doesn’t wear it a lot, luckily, but it scared me. Like, we were getting ready to go — we’re in Malibu about to go to dinner, and I was like, ‘What is taking her so long?’”

Per Cannon, when he entered the 13-year-old’s room, he reportedly found a plethora of makeup and hair products.

“I was like, ‘Wow, you’re just like your mom,’” he explained. “It’s beautiful to see but scary all at the same time.”
