Anderson Cooper Discovers Coffee & Parenting Go Hand In Hand

Anderson Cooper and Stephen Colbert

Anderson Cooper shared the birth of his son at the end of April. Very excited at being a brand new dad, he never expected he’d be able to do that given his same-gender preference. He admits that Andy Cohen’s experience with his child Ben made him realize that he too could father a child through surrogacy. Apart from the joy of parenting, Anderson just discovered that coffee and raising babies go hand in hand.

Anderson Cooper says Andy Cohen gifted him Ben’s hand-me-downs

TV Shows Ace reported that when Anderson announced the birth of little Wyatt, Andy also shared a photo of his friend with Wyatt. One of the first celebs to congratulate his friend, Andy knows how wonderful a child is. While Andy mulls a possible second child, he helped out Anderson with all of Ben’s hand-me-downs. Grateful, Anderson said that during COVID-19, there are not so many options for good shopping right now. So, he accepted the gift.

The new info from Anderson Cooper came when he chatted with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show last night. Joking, he said that he hoped his son would be a “Depression Era child who grows up wearing hand-me-down clothes.” However, Anderson doesn’t mind thriftiness, and no doubt the opportunity to shop for Wyatt comes in the future. He also told Stephen that Andy made him realize that a child of his own could become a reality.

Coffee and raising babies

The CNN host never really enjoyed coffee before Wyatt came home. He explained that his favorite new beverage helps him cope with the hours babies keep. Naturally, he tried the odd cup of coffee in the past. However, he realizes now, that parenting puts a whole new spin on it. He said, “I can’t believe I have gone so long without coffee.” Actually, he normally prefers soda, In fact, historically, Anderson never cared for hot drinks. Notably, he never really “got the point” of them.

Now, after a few odd sleeping hours, Anderson Cooper became a convert. He told Colbert, “Now, I totally get it.” He added that he’s now “addicted and it just snaps your mind into focus. I wake up, I think of my son first but caffeine” comes next. Anderson also talked again about the birth.

In his original Instagram post about Wyatt, he thanked the surrogate mom for the care she took with Wyatt. In fact, he mentioned now, that he actually witnessed his baby being born. He’s struck by the way life arrives. After all, he witnessed his mom pass away, and now he experienced the other end of the life spectrum.

In his interview with Anderson Cooper, Stephen Colbert thanked him for bringing some good news into the world right now. Certainly seeing the brand new dad smiling lifts the hearts of many people who suffer through the pandemic.
