The star made the decision to leave news reporting to host ABC’s prime-time reality television show The Mole.

At the same time as anchoring his own show, he was still regularly contributing to CNN’s NewsNight.

In 2012, Anderson publicly came out as gay.

And more recently, the star opened up about what it was like to come out to his family and friends. “I came out in high school to my friends. I was in love with this guy and I was so desperate, I just asked all my friends how I could get him. And I sort of always felt like I was out, I had boyfriends, I’d go dancing, I’d go to bars and stuff. But reporters didn’t really talk about their personal lives,” he explained in a 2019 interview with EW.

“And then, with Twitter and the internet, suddenly you could access something about anybody.”

“And the expectation became, ‘You’re a public person, you should be public.’ And in the world of journalism, that was kind of still… I don’t know. It was a difficult thing to navigate. “I was traveling in the Middle East a lot. I spent most of my early years in war zones. And I’d gone to a lot of countries where it’s illegal and where, at the time, I had no security.

“I was by myself in Somalia and all these places and it was just easier not to say something. But I reached a point where, by not saying something, I realized I was saying something. Oftentimes you hear, ‘Well why should I have to come out? I’m open in my private life. I’m not hiding anything. I never pretended.’ But it does make a difference.”

And in April 2020, Cooper entered a brand new chapter in his life…

Announcing the birth of his son!

“I want to share with you some joyful news. On Monday, I became a father,” he wrote. “He was 7.2 lbs at birth, and he is sweet, and soft, and healthy and I am beyond happy.”

Then, at the start of this year, Anderson announced the birth of his second child, Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper.

Throughout this new adventure, there has been one friend that has stuck by him and helped him every step of the way, and that’s Andy Cohen.

He met his second son in February, shortly after Cooper brought him home.

And Cohen captured the moment, sharing it on Instagram. “Today we met our new pal Sebastian Maisani-Cooper!” Cohen wrote. He said Sebastian was “a peaceful beauty.”

Well now, Cohen has announced the birth of his own daughter, and Cooper has returned the favor.

“HERE’S LUCY!!!!! Meet my daughter, Lucy Eve Cohen! She’s 8 lbs., 13 oz., and was born at 5:13 pm in New York City!!!” Cohen wrote on Instagram.

He added, “Her big brother can’t wait to meet her! Thank you to my rock star surrogate (ALL surrogates are rockstars, by the way) and everyone who helped make this miracle happen. I’m so happy.”

On Saturday, Cooper met Lucy for the first time, with Cohen sharing the adorable encounter on Instagram…
