Cannon, 41,announced his son’s deathon his eponymous talk show, telling listeners last week, “Today is a special one y’all for many reasons but it’s not gonna be an easy one. I haven’t even shared this with anybody, not even the crew. I had a very tough weekend.”
Last week, Scott shared anemotional tributeon Instagram to Zen and the times she shared with him before his death. The post — a video montage — is paired with Jhené Aiko’s song “Promises,” and a heartfelt message from Scott was written in the caption.
“Oh my sweet Zen. The soreness I felt in my arm from holding you is slowly fading away. It’s a painful reminder that you are no longer here,” she wrote. “I caught myself looking in the backseat as I was driving only to see the mirror no longer reflecting your perfect face back at me. When I close a door too loudly I hold my breath and wince knowing a soft cry will shortly follow. It doesn’t come. The silence is deafening.”
“These last 5 months we have been in this race together. We would hand the baton off to each other. You kept me going. It would be the middle of the night and you would smile at me. A surge of energy would fill my body and pure joy would radiate from within me,” Scott continued. “We were a team, both determined to see it through. It feels unbearable running without you now. I can’t.”
“It has been an honor and privilege being your mommy,” Scott ended her tribute. “I will love you for eternity. 62321 - 12521.”
