Bre Tiesi has endured the grueling challenges on Special Forces, but she says filming Nick Cannon’s upcoming Netflix docuseries was worse.
The Selling Sunset star, who is the mother of one of Cannon’s 12 children, called shooting the Netflix series a horrible experience.
“It was awful. Worst thing I’ve ever done where I almost killed him. I would rather go back to Malaysia,” she said. “Send me, I’ll go to jail. I don’t care where, anywhere but do that again.

Tiesi discussed her reluctance to put her family life on camera during the Oct. 6 episode of Angela Yee’s “Lip Service” podcast. When Yee asked about her decision to take part in the series, Tiesi said she didn’t have a choice.
“I was forced into this,” she said.
She later explained that she felt caught between protecting her privacy and having a say in how her story was told.
“Personally, I felt like it was a lose-lose,” she explained. “If I didn’t do it, I’m allowing a space for another narrative to be created that isn’t mine.”
Cannon is dad to twins Moroccan and Monroe, 15, with Mariah Carey.
He shares sons Golden, 9, Rise, 4, and daughter Powerful, 5, with Brittany Bell.
He welcomed twin sons Zion and Zillion, 5, and daughter Beautiful, 3, with Abby De La Rosa.
He has a son named Legendary, 4, with Tiesi.
He is also dad to daughter Onyx, 4, with LaNisha Cole.
He welcomed two children with Alyssa Scott — daughter Halo, 3, and son Zen, who died of brain cancer at 5 months old in 2021.
The new series will follow Cannon’s family life and how he balances fatherhood with his entertainment career. Netflix announced the project in May and said it will arrive this winter.
But viewers won’t see all six of his children’s mothers on screen, according to Tiesi.
“Did Mariah agree to this too?” Yee asked, referring to Cannon’s superstar ex-wife.
“No. No,” Tiesi answered. “It’s not everybody, but there’s a good amount of us on there and you learn a lot.”
Despite her reservations about filming, the entrepreneur and model said she is committed to Cannon.
“I think he is my life partner. I genuinely love this man. We have a great relationship. I love our family regardless of everything else,” she said.
Still, Tiesi said there is one thing that might make her walk away.
“I only have like one deal breaker. One. And if it ever happens, then I might be out,” she said.
Asked what would cause her to leave, Tiesi didn’t hesitate.
“If he has another baby,” she said. “No more.”
