On Wednesday evening, the 41-year-old star revealed on Instagram that he secretly welcomed a baby girl named Onyx Ice Cole Cannon.

"Once again, Today I am in Awe of the Devine Feminine! God has given me and @MissLanishaCole the privilege of hosting an Angel here on earth," Nick wrote in the black-and-white reel.

The Nickelodeon alum is seen proudly holding the newborn with Cole in the intimate post as his track I Do with Chris Brown plays in the background.

"I vow to protect, provide, guide and love this child to the best of my abilities. In this moment of celebration and jubilee, I wish to mute any low vibrational frequencies and only rejoice with the Highest Class of Civilization who are truly aligned with our purpose here in this dimension," he added.

The former Price is Right model confirmed the news on her account with a closer pic of their daughter.

Cole's daughter is the first child she shares with ol' father Nick, who's habitual reproduction has been heavily criticized.

Here's a quick recap of Nick's ever-growing lineage.

The Masked Singer host is father to twins Monroe and Moroccan with Mariah Carey, son Golden Sagon and daughter Powerful Queen with Brittany Bell – who he is also expecting a third child with, might we add.

Nick is also dad to twins Zion and Zillion with Abby De La Rosa, son Legendary Love with Bre Tiesi, and was father to Zen, who tragically passed away at 5 months in 2021.

Despite all the disapproval he's faced with, Papa Cannon couldn't care less about the shade.

"I've given up on attempting to define myself for the world or society but instead I'm doing the work to heal and grow into the infinite being God ordained me to be," he continued in the post.

"Hopefully I can teach Onyx the same, to not let others shame or ridicule her with their outside opinions, because when they do they are only projecting their own harsh experiences, pain and social programming onto her unblemished beauty."
