As she readies herself to give birth to what will be Nick Cannon's eighth child – and her first – Bre Tiesi is insisting that being a NC BM is "not a cult," despite what outsiders might be thinking.
The 31-year-old appeared on the Know For Sure podcast with co-hosts B. Simone and Megan Brooks recently, dishing on everything from the status of her relationship with the entertainer to how the public reacted to finding out about her pregnancy.

"It's not necessarily anything," Tiesi shared when pressed to define her and Cannon's situation, though she made it clear that her "needs are met" by what they have together. "This is just us," she said.
"What you do outside of that is what you do outside of that," the soon-to-be mother of one continued, seemingly addressing her baby daddy's ongoing relationships with his other children's mothers. "Everything is respectful, everything is honest."
According to Tiesi, should Cannon ever decide to settle down and marry another woman, she'll be "happy" for him and continue navigating life as co-parents together.
"I love him," she shared on the podcast, though she admitted it's "hard" knowing that the person she has such strong feelings for is also involved with other people. How she stays sane through it all? Avoiding comparison.
As you may remember, news of Tiesi's pregnancy broke back in December – around the same time when it was revealed that Cannon had lost his youngest child, Zen, after a tragic battle with cancer. "It was a really delicate situation," she recalled.
