Golden will have a half-brother and sister to hang out with, as Cannon is the dad of 5-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, whom he shares with ex-wife Mariah Carey.

After breaking the news in November that he and Bell were expecting a child, Cannon gushed exclusively to ET about becoming a father for a third time. "It's outstanding," he shared. "Honestly they say even in unexpected situations, you still embrace the beauty of bringing a life into this world, because that is what life is all about."
