Andy Cohen makes single fatherhood look easy! On Monday, the Bravo star shared a photo on his Instagram page of his adorable 3-month-old daughter Lucy dressed in a yellow onesie covered in vegetables relaxing on an activity mat. But really, did anyone even notice the cute outfit she's wearing with those kissable cheeks and gorgeous big blue eyes staring into the camera? Excuse us while we melt...
Comments on the Pic Were Love Filled
The proud papa, 54, captioned the perfect photo with a simple, "I mean..." and we totally get it. Lucy needs no catchy caption to capture anyone's attention or steal any hearts. Among the commenters on the post were plenty of famous friends including Melissa Gorga, Amy Sedaris, Khloe Kardashian, Padma Lakshmi, Katie Couric, Kyle Richards, and more than 5,000 others. The general consensus was basically love and awe, with the comment section looking like a sea of heart and heart eye emojis, as well as lots of "adorable" and "beautiful" messages.
Cohen is a Proud Father of Two
Cohen is also dad to son Benjamin Allen, 3. Both children were welcomed via surrogate. The "Watch What Happens Live" host always knew that he wanted to one day be a father, but "as a gay man, I never thought it was in the cards for me." When Benjamin was born, Cohen told People that he "didn't want to wait" to become a father, even if he had to do it as a single parent. "It's not something in your mind - 'Oh, I want to do this alone.' But I like being alone. I didn't want to wait. To me it would have to be a very special person to say, 'Let's do this together,'" he said. "And I would love that, and that person could be having coffee down the street at this moment and I'll meet him soon."
His Children are Biological Siblings
Cohen announced his daughter's arrival on Instagram in a surprise post. "When Ben met Lucy," the father of two captioned a sweet moment between his son and daughter. During an appearance on Sirius XM's "Jeff Lewis Live," Cohen revealed that his children are biological siblings, and he still has a number of embryos remaining. "I have a few. I can't remember. I think I have three left?" Cohen said. "You know what I'm thinking - this is crazy - but if either of them cannot have kids, maybe in 20 years they'll defrost their sibling and raise them. Is that a weird thought?"
Dating as a Single Dad of Two Young Children
Now that Cohen is a single dad, navigating the world of dating isn't the easiest thing to do. During an appearance on SiriusXM's "Stern Show Summer School," he discussed how "emotionally chaotic" dating with two young children feels. "Dating is another story because you know, there are two kinds of people, people that you wanna date and people that you..." he explained. Host Rahsaan Rogers added, "People that you wanna bang."
Later in the interview Cohen added, "So that's taking up noise in my mind, the dating thing, because I'm like, 'Oh my god, I'm not only dating someone, but obviously there's going to be a point where I'm like, I want you to meet my kids.'"
