In the latest episode of Netflix's reality series Selling Sunset, Bre Tiesi said Nick Cannon is "a good dad" but he doesn't need to support her financially.

Per People, Tiesi addressed her relationship with Cannon, who is the father of her son Legendary Love. "I take care of myself," she said. "If my son needs something, or we do, I ask; that's all I have to do. I know he's a good dad, and Nick is not my sugar daddy. Nick is not the reason I'm where I'm at."

Cannon has 11 other children with five other women. He frequently makes headlines for this, and recently admitted he mixed up Mother's Day cards.

Tiesi added in the Selling Sunet episode, "I definitely strive to be the best at everything, to the point where I drive myself insane, but I've worked my ass off to be where I'm at. I did this all myself, and of course, my son is even more of a motivation. I want to give him everything from me. Not from my partner."

Bre Tiesi made similar remarks last September, writing on Instagram, "Keep my parenting, my kid and my baby daddy's name out ur mouth. Nick is not my sugar daddy. Nick is my fuckin child's father that is all."

In addition to Legendary with Tiesi, Cannon is also father to twins with ex-wife Mariah Carrey, three children with Abby De La Rosa, one with LaNisha Cole, two with Alyssa Scott, and three with Brittany Bell. Cannon recently hit back against criticism he's faced for welcoming so many kids to the world and said he's tired of being "villanized."

“I hear all the time: ‘You can’t be present for all those children.’ So, therefore, I get this deadbeat dad title," he said.
