“Do you know how much money I spend at Disneyland a year?” Cannon asked the hosts, according to theDaily Mail, to which one of them responded, “A lot.”

He said the money often goes to paying for hotel rooms for the kids, a chaperone to take them around the park and other add-ons along with the base tickets for the theme park.
“Disneyland is expensive already off [the] top if [you’re] trying to stay in the hotel,” Cannon added. “It’s not how it used to be. You gotta make reservations.”
The actor and host noted it’s a lot different from when he used to get free tickets to the park for hosting its Christmas morning parade. ”It’s no longer free, and I only had two kids then,” Cannon said, referring to twinsMoroccanandMonroe, both 12, whom he shares withMariah Carey.
He also shares two children withAlyssa Scott— sonZen, whodiedat 5 months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer, and daughterHalo Marie Cannon born on Dec. 14, 2022.

While Cannon loves his big family, he’s opened up in the past about the challenges ofbeing a father of multiple children.
“Being a father of multiple kids, it’s always the biggest guilt on me is that I don’t get to spend enough time with all my children,” Cannon said during a December 2022 episode ofThe Checkup with Dr. Aguson Paramount+. “One ‘cause I’m constantly working and two because I’m just spread thin.”
