Single father of two and "Watch What Happens Live" host, Andy Cohen, recently shed light on his love life and his attempts to get back into the dating scene. The Bravo show host has a three-year-old son, Benjamin, and a daughter Lucy who is five months.
Cohen was previously romantically linked to John Hill, the producer of "Watch What Happens Live," as well as an epidemiologist named Clifton Dassuncao. His most recent relationship was with Dassuncao; however, the duo seemed to end things in early 2018.
Cohen has not been linked to anyone romantically in the past few years and seemed more than occupied with his role as a father of his two young children and his equally hectic career. However, the Bravo show host recently revealed that he was single and looking to get into a relationship.

Andy Cohen Says He Needs 'Help' Dating
Cohen joined a panel during day one of the 2022 BravoCon and talked about his love life or current lack of it. The 54-year-old told Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb from Today that he was officially back in the dating market. However, Cohen revealed that he faced some issues trying to get back on and might need some help.
The father of two said that he was currently single but needed some assistance in his search. "Daddy needs help," Cohen joked per E! News. The show host also revealed that he had already joined a number of dating apps. He said, "I'm on Raya. I'm on Tinder. I'm ready to go!"
The reporter broached the topic of Cohen's friendship with Cooper and how the duo looked "adorable." The 54-year-old, however, clarified that they were just friends and had never had anything more in the past.

Cohen and Cooper will likely never cross the threshold of their platonic relationship. In a previous interview on "The Howard Stern Show," the Bravo host talked about his relationship with Cooper and explained that the duo had never dated despite their close bond because their relationship was not based on that.
"I just think it's not what our relationship is based on," the 54-year-old explained. "We're just friends; that's not a part of it. I think, at this point, we know each other too well. We're not attracted to each other in that way." Cohen admitted that while he considered Cooper handsome, he also considered him a good friend.
Besides the show hosts, their children, Benjamin and Wyatt, are also good friends and have been on several play dates. In November 2020, Cooper revealed that the duo had bonded while playing together during one of the dates.
He recalled per Today, "Yeah, it was sweet 'cause I was playing with them both, and Ben kissed Wyatt on the cheek and hugged him, and it was so cute, and he did that a couple times. And my heart kind of melted."
He Said He Thought Anderson Cooper's Eyes Were Sexy
Despite his platonic relationship with Cooper, Cohen revealed that he found certain parts of the CNN anchor alluring. Cooper joined him in an episode of "Watch What Happens Live" during a game where the guest had to answer a number of questions.
One such question required the 55-year-old to mention where he considered his sexiest body part. Cooper seemed dumbfounded by the question and claimed he had "no sexy body part."
Cohen, however, thought differently and jumped in to say what he thought was his friend's sexiest physical feature. The 54-year-old said, "Yes! Your eyes, it's your eyes." They soon moved on from the questions to a separate segment on the show.
Andy Cohen Called The Dating Scene Chaotic
In an earlier interview with SiriusXM's show "Summer School," Cohen revealed that he thought the current dating pool was chaotic, mainly due to his current status as a father of two. He also said that due to his children, there was an obvious shift in priorities for him.
"Dating is another story because, you know, I haven't; there are two kinds of people, people that you wanna date and people that you…" the 54-year-old trailed off. Rahsaan Rogers, the show's co-host, supplied, "People that you wanna bang."
Cohen joked, "Thank you. Thank you, Rahsaan. Okay. So the answer is the dating thing that, you know, I have had some dates."
