Model Lanisha Cole is now a mom. That’s right! She welcomed her daughter on September 14, 2022, and also revealed the baby’s father — it’s Nick Cannon!

Below you will find more information about Lanisha’s husband, ethnicity, height, and more.

Meet Lanisha Cole, Nick Cannon Baby Mama

Lanisha Cole began dating Nick Cannon in early 2017 (shortly after the rapper’s divorce from singer/songwriter Mariah Carey). But shortly after that December, Lanisha announced their split via Instagram.

The model then continued to pursue a private dating life.

However, by 2022, Lanisha revealed that she was pregnant (but did not say who the father was). And it wasn’t until a few weeks before her daughter was born on September 14, 2022 that Lanisha revealed that Nick Cannon was the father.

On August 24, Nick also shared some pregnancy photos with Lanisha on his IG.

Anyway, now that Lanisha’s daughter Onyx Ice Cole Cannon is here, Nick is overjoyed. He says, “I vow to protect, provide for, guide, and love this child to the best of my ability.”

Likewise, Lanisha’s mother also shared that she felt blessed to welcome Onyx into this world. “The joy I felt as a mother is something that has forever opened my heart in a huge new way. I am obsessed with her! And you know there will be no shortage of pictures and videos,” she added.

But while the parents were delighted, online critics questioned Nick’s unconventional views on monogamy, to which the rapper responded, “I’m not easily provoked and I have pretty tough skin and I’ve always been an open book, but not everyone in my family has that level of toughness.”

Furthermore, Nick pleaded with people to direct all criticism and skepticism towards him and not “the loving and esteemed mothers of (his) children”.

And finally, Nick also praised Lanisha, saying that she was “the most innocent, peaceful, and non-confrontational soul he had ever witnessed.”

How many children does Lanisha Cole have?

Lanisha Cole has only one child, Onyx Ice Cole Cannon and Nick Cannon.

But while this is Lanisha’s first child, this is Nick’s ninth. And what’s even more surprising is that Nick is expecting two more children before 2023! One with Brittany Bell, and one with Abby De La Rosa.

Nick’s other eight children include twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex Mariah Carey; son Golden Sagon and daughter Powerful Queen with model Brittany Bell; twins Zion and Zillion with former radio host Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary Love with model Bre Tiesi; and son Zen (who died at 5 months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer) with Alyssa Scott.

Lanisha Cole’s husband

Lanisha Cole married ex-husband Rick Licht in December 2014 — after a 10-month engagement and six years of dating.

At the time, the couple’s marriage caused quite a stir after Lanisha criticized an urban website for allegedly “mocking black women in interracial relationships and marriages while giving rappers and basketball players a pass all day long.”

In her open letter, Lanisha shared that calling someone a “traitor” based on their significant other’s race is “mean, pathetic, and highlights everything that’s wrong with our society.” She also confessed that she has never been in a relationship based on wealth or status. “If that were the case, I’m sure you would see me hanging out with rappers, athletes, artists, etc. I’ve always been low-key (by choice) and made my life decisions based on what I value, what my parents taught me, and what my heart tells me to do,” she explained.

Sadly, Lanisha divorced her ex-husband before 2017.

In case you’re wondering, Rick Licht has been the “CEO and Board Member” of Hero Ventures, LLC since August 2011. He is also the founder of the Sports Law Department at the Beverly Hills Law Firm of Rosenfeld, Meyer & Sussman. He also created the Official All-Star Café restaurant chain with his clients and later went public with Ultimate Sports Entertainment, Inc., which has turned professional athletes into Superheroes in retail comic books and advertising.

This UCLA Law School has also ventured into the entertainment industry as a producer for films such as Chapel (2022), Prisoners of WAR – Subject Zero (2022), The Sinners (2020), Code_Switch (2019), etc.
