Nick Cannon won’t “take none of the credit” for his son Golden starting second grade at just 5 years old.
“He gets his genius from his Mamma!” the “Masked Singer” host wrote via Instagram Tuesday of Brittany Bell.
Cannon, 41, shared a photo of Golden smiling while wearing a backpack and holding a chalkboard sign that said he wants to be a scientist when he grows up.
“Yesterday was the first day of 2ND GRADE for MR. GOLDEN CANNON!! (And he’s only 5 years old!!!)” the actor captioned the back-to-school photo. “Congratulations Champ!!”
Golden skipped preschool and kindergarten, jumping right into first grade in April 2021.
“This boy has such a gift for learning and has been a joy to pour into,” Bell, 34, gushed to her Instagram followers at the time.
“Emotional intelligence and cognitive abilities are key in balance before any acceleration should be permitted!” she continued. “He has been a special spirit in both areas!”
The former pageant queen’s 1-year-old daughter with Cannon, Powerful, is also a smart cookie, with the toddler showing her reading skills in December 2021.
“Wow!!! Look at this brilliant baby!!” the Nickelodeon alum captioned a video of Powerful making sounds and gestures corresponding to words on flashcards.
Cannon called his baby girl a “genius,” writing, “I can’t take any of the credit here though! That’s all her amazing Mommy.”
The “Wild ‘N Out” host and Bell are currently expecting their third baby together, another son.
Cannon broke the news last week by posting maternity shoot footage via Instagram, writing, “Time Stopped and This Happened.”
The “All That” alum is also the father of two sets of twins — Moroccan and Monroe, 11, with Mariah Carey as well as Zion and Zillion, 1, with Abby De La Rosa — and son Legendary, 2 months, with Bre Tiesi.
Although Cannon and Alyssa Scott welcomed their son, Zen, in June 2021, the 5-month-old died in December of that same year after a brain cancer diagnosis.
The former “All That” star teased in June that “the stork is on the way” and he is expecting multiple babies this year.
Many speculate that Cannon is the father of De La Rosa’s third child, as the DJ, 31, announced her pregnancy that same month and appeared to go on a Bahamas babymoon with the actor in July — but neither have confirmed his paternity.
