Nick Cannon jokes he's 'right there with' Elon Musk as Tesla CEO secretly welcomes twins

Nick Cannon has joked he's 'right there with' Elon Musk after the billionaire confirmed the birth of twins.

On Wednesday, court documents revealed the Tesla CEO, 51, secretly welcomed twins in November last year with Shivon Zilis, a top executive at his artificial intelligence company Neuralink.

The twins' arrival came just weeks before he had his second child with singer Grimes, which means he now has 10 children.

Meanwhile, TV host and rapper Nick, 41, is on the same boat and welcomed eight children with five women.

He is reportedly expecting his ninth child, due in October, with Abby De La Rosa.

After Elon took to Twitter to post about the 'underpopulation crisis', Nick felt they had something in common and responded.

"Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis," Elon wrote.

"A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far."

Nick, who hosts The Masked Singer, responded: "Right there with you my Brother!"

News broke of the arrival of Elon's twins earlier in the week and their birth is said to have been just weeks before the billionaire had his second child with singer Grimes.

After being congratulated on the announcement, Elon told Page Six : "Bravo to big families."

The SpaceX founder also has kids with ex-wife Justine Musk - twins Griffin and Vivian, who were born in 2004, and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian, whom he welcomed in 2006.

The pair also had a son called Nevada in 2002, but the tot sadly passed away aged just 10 weeks old from sudden infant death syndrome.

He recently said he plans on breaking his own record by fathering more children this year.
