Nick Cannon’s ex-girlfriend Jessica White has claimed that she was in an “emotionally abusive” relationship with the Wild ‘n Out star.
White, a former Victoria’s Secret runway model, reportedly dated Cannon from 2015 to 2020. Shortly after attending the “blue carpet” premiere of French Montana’s new documentary, For Khadija, at the Tribeca Festival on Friday (June 16), she wrote a lengthy post on her Instagram Stories many believed to be directed at Cannon.

“I wanted it to work, prayed every day that you’d see me and love me the way that I loved you. Maybe you did but just kept it from me during the relationship. I walked away with more questions than anything, I don’t know till this day really why current things had to happen,” she wrote in part.
Page Sixfollowed up with White after she posted the message, who admitted that she should have saved it for her memoir.
“I probably regret that [because] I should have saved it for the fucking book, and got paid for it,” she told the outlet. When asked how long the chapter on Cannon would be, White added it “would be very short… I think if you put it in a book, he would be half a chapter. A half a chapter is still too long.”
She continued, “I went through an emotionally abusive relationship, and everybody goes through it. I am just the first person in Hollywood to talk about it, and not try to make a pretty picture of it. I don’t want to be perfect.”
She went on to say she has no plans to get back together with Nick Cannon.
“I am not ever going back and that’s the facts,” she continued. “I am having so much fun without him, and I am better without him, and I don’t need all that energy and all that shit. I am done.”
She added that she’s currently searching for the right partner and that she would love to try again and have a baby.

“I am going to try, but with the right man this time,” she told Page Six. “I am putting myself out there. Part of my healing process is not sitting back and waiting to be fully healed… nobody ever really is. I can’t wait to make love and have a baby soon. Oh yeah, I am all for it.”
White revealed that she previously suffered a miscarriage in 2020 after becoming pregnant with Nick Cannon’s baby, and had previously told Hollywood Unlocked in 2021 that she found out another woman had also become pregnant by Cannon via TV.

“I was going through still my hormonal changes, and we were about to start in vitro,” she said at the time. “So when I came out, people thought I was this homewrecker. No, there was a real-life going on. I was bullied for months with that whole situation. I still tried to be nice about it. We didn’t break up right away, we tried to work things out.”
Nick Cannon has yet to respond to any of White’s comments. He is currently the father of 11, having fathered Moroccan, Monroe, Golden, Powerful Queen, Zion, Zillion, Legendary, Onyx, Rise, Beautiful, Halo, and the late Zen who passed away at five months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer.
