Andy Cohen, who has used his kids for PR continuously, now shares he sometimes feels alone as a single gay dad of 2

lmao is this a case of be careful what you wish for?

I'm all for gays wanting kids if they REALLY want them for the right reasons. Andy doesn't seem to fit that standard at all. What a nutty narcissist

I mean we know he has nannies. I don't feel sympathy. Why is he never in a relationship? He really should have gotten himself into a stable relationship with another guy who also wanted kids

From the article:

[quote] "The thing has been for me in the last year is when Lucy came, I think it really changed me as a parent," said Cohen, who is also a father to a 4-year-old son named Benjamin Allen. "I felt way more in control when I had just one. Then when I had two, I not only felt... I don't want to say I felt out of control, but I just felt the experience got a little lonelier for me. I started to feel more vulnerable."

[quote] Cohen shared that his feelings took a turn for the worse during an experience at the park with fellow parents.

[quote] "The sprinklers went off, and I didn't know to have a change of clothes," he explained. "I looked around, and I'm the only single parent there. I'm the only gay dad. I just felt like I was on an island, and I went back to my house, and I cried."

[quote] The Bravo star explained that the situation "opened up a vulnerability."

[quote] "It was just a trigger," he continued.

I think Andy said he does not have a nanny. In any case, all of the boys he hung with are all old and worn out now anyway (Boomer Banks, that waspy opportunistic actor he dated years ago, Anderson Cooper, etc.)

Imagine how he'll be when one or both of his parents die. Am I the only one who feels a little sorry for him?

by Anonymousreply 41May 20, 2023 10:23 PM

R22, he's fine.

He and Anderson had their kids at the same time so they could support each other as parents. They also did this so their kids would grow up together, have a sibling-like relationship and have Uncle Andy and Uncle Anderson play active roles in their lives. And who knows. Maybe the kids actually are siblings and share a bio mom.

R22, no, he has nannies. I think he said he doesn't have a nanny on the weekend.

Both Anderson and him like to pick out a supposed personal issue and publicize it because they think it makes them seem more relatable to the public just like many celebs do.

I do think they had kids because they truly wanted them. However, like many other celebs, they realize having kids gives them a new opportunity to gain new fans that they might not have been able to connect with before they became parents. They are not going to let that opportunity to pass them by.

Andy Cohen dearly loves his children, and the children know they are truly loved and wanted, you can see it in their angelic Sweet faces and personalities. Andy is just going through a phase of normal parenting, it will take time, but at least he is talking about it, talking through it is cathartic, he will get through it. Andy is a very good father to his beautiful kids, and before you know it, those kids will be graduating college with honors. Hang in there, Andy. :-)

He has been pushing his new book, The Daddy Diaries HARD. The only person who rivals him in indefatigable promotion was Barbara Walters when she would shill her specials or her own memoir, Audition. I’m eager for this era to pass. I did enjoy him posing nude recently, though. I know he’s reviled on DL (and I get his personality can be repugnant), but he’s hot for a 55 year old.

[quote]The sprinklers went off, and I didn't know to have a change of clothes

That's something you learn as a parent, and I'm having trouble understanding why he didn't learn this years ago, his eldest is already 4 years old. I guess he decided to take the kids to the park himself for once, without any hired nannies, and didn't know what he was doing.

I worked for a time at a Head Start when I was just out of college, and I learned on the first day that many kids showed up with a change of clothes, at least underwear, and the school had a stash of clothes just in case. Those kids could not help themselves, if there was a mud puddle or fingerpaint or applesauce anywhere near them, it was all over their clothes.

Andy likely has a cadre of nannies. Even middle class parents in NYC have nannies. The playgrounds and school pickups are 3/4 nannies in every neighborhood in the city. The fact that he pretends otherwise is a tell. He wants to look like superdad who is doing it “alone.”

"Why did he never get married?"

Look at his personality. The guy's insufferable, even when the cameras are off. He can't keep a decent man - or ANY man.

Howard Stern's gay boy PA, Chris Wilding, had a publicized crush on Andy Cohen after Andy consoled him through a gay breakup. Andy promised him, ON AIR, that he'd take him out and help him heal. Chris came back a few weeks later to sadly report that Andy was late for their meeting, and only a few minutes into the drink he wandered off to either take a call or socialize with some fellow famous people. Chris was left feeling utterly neglected and used. He came out of it okay, but you could tell he felt cheapened by Andy Cohen's star-fucker attitude.

Im around fancy NYC parents all the time. I’d be willing to bet he has at least two full time nannies. Which is fine, whatever, but it’s not anything close to what an actual full-time single parent experiences. If you have the ability to come and go as you please and take breaks when you need, then that alone takes away the biggest burden about raising small humans.

R58 and R67 Do you remember when Cohen first got to Sirius and he called into the Stern Show, and Howard congratulated him for finally getting on the cover of "People" by having a kid? The entire phone call consisted of accusing Cohen of having a kid to boost his profile, asking why in the FUCK he wanted to have a child in the first place, and assuming Andy doesn't even take the kid. FUCKING hilarious.

It was typical Stern and Robin saying what everybody was thinking.
