The 'Masked Singer' host stated that he had gone for a consultation about getting a vasectomy back in May because he didn't want to "completely populate the Earth." "I already went and got my vasectomy consultation," he told E! News at the time. "I ain't looking to populate the Earth completely, but I'm definitely looking forward to taking care and loving all the children that I currently have."

Cannon confirmed that he had never intended to have so many children, but he insisted that he wouldn't change a thing because of his seven (soon to be ten) children, in whom he "finds solace" and "purpose." Cannon added, "I don't know if I would've designed it this way, but it's one of those things when you're blessed with the gifts of children—and as we all know, I've been through so much, I find solace, I find peace in my children and I find purpose."

While speaking with PEOPLE in May, Cannon opened up about the joys of being a father. He said, "Every day I just wake up excited as a father,"  He added, "I'm so excited about all my kids. Constantly, from every aspect of it. From them getting citizen of the month awards in the first grade to the birth of the new ones."
