CNN primetime host Anderson Cooper appears to be one of the only people on the network in recent times to not be involved in a scandal.
The host left his own show after the first segment and after announcing life-changing news. That news was the birth of his new baby son named Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper, with his former partner Benjamin Maisani.
“There’s a lot to get to tonight. But I wanted to start off with some good news, which also happens to be very personal news,” the host said to start the show. “In April 2020, in the early dark days of the pandemic, you may recall I announced the birth of my son, Wyatt. These are the pictures I showed of Wyatt then, taken just days after he was born.”
“Well, this is Wyatt today. He is nearly 22 months old, and he is sweet and funny and the greatest joy in my life. If he looks particularly happy in this picture, it’s because he now has a baby brother. His name is Sebastian, and I would like you to meet him,” he said before showing photos of his new baby.
