Bre Tiesiis shaking up theSelling Sunsetcast and isn’t shying away from the personal exploits that rile up the rest of The Oppenheim Group.
The latest real estate agent to join the hit Netflix reality series is already familiar to some as one of the mothers to share a child withNick Cannon. Tiesi, 32, and Cannon, 42, welcomed sonLegendaryin July 2022, and the mom began shooting season 6 of the show just weeks after giving birth.
It isn’t long before Tiesi’s personal life becomes the talk of the luxury reality company, with the returning agents seen asking questions about the logistics of her relationship with theMasked Singerhost. In the seventh episode, costar Amanza Smith asks Tiesi if it’s true that someone doesn’t have to pay child support after having 10 children.

“That’s true,” Tiesi responds as the pair share cocktails in a picturesque rooftop setting. “The way it works is like, after 10, the court can basically say he can’t afford to pay child support. Or because he is who he is, they could say, ‘We know you can afford X amount for each household.'”

“That explains a lot, I guess,” Amanza responds in a confessional interview. “I’d keep going too.”
Cannon is father to 12 children including Legendary, and Tiesi is quick to point out that she doesn’t rely on the comedian to finance her own life — or that of their child. “I take care of myself,” she retorts. “If my son needs something, or we do, I ask, that’s all I have to do. I know he’s a good dad and Nick is not my sugar daddy, Nick is not the reason I’m where I’m at.”
“I definitely strive to be the best at everything, to the point where I drive myself insane, but I’ve worked my ass off to be where I’m at,” she adds in a confessional interview. “I did this all myself, and of course, my son is even more of a motivation. I want to give him everything from me. Not from my partner.”
Tiesi’s parenting faces season-long scrutiny from the other agents, especially Chelsea Lazkani, who repeatedly questions how the two make it work. “My situation’s interesting,” Tiesi explains to the office in the season’s third episode. “I don’t know if I would say I’m single, I’ve been in — I don’t want to call it open, but open relationship.”
In the following episode, Lazkani tells the agents about an off-camera moment where Tiesi finds out that Cannon is having a child with another woman, noting that “she was very surprised and she was very upset.” She adds that she thinks theWild’N Outhost could be a “master manipulator” and that she doesn’t believe all his children are getting the love and support they need.
“I find Nick Cannon and Bre’s relationship rather off-putting, she says. “I just think we’re fundamentally so different and ultimately the way I live my life is very different to her, as a Christian, so I don’t know if we will ever be super, super close friends”
When Tiesi finds out her co-worker has been discussing her relationship behind her back, a heated confrontation takes place over dinner in Palm Springs in the eighth episode. “You don’t need to agree with my situation, this ismysituation,” she announces to Lazkani. “I’m not going to have people in this office talk about my family. I’m not.”
Tiesi has grown accustomed to people commenting on her situation and recently stood up for Cannon when an Instagram commenter tried to comment on his financial support.
