Andy Cohen Apologizes for Losing Mind After Son Ben Refuses to Wear Shorts

Andy Cohendidn’t get too warm of a welcome when he returned from his book tour.

On Sunday, theWatch What Happens Livestar, 54, posted a reel on hisInstagrammid-toddler meltdown.

“Welcome back from book tour, Daddy! #DaddyDiaries,” Cohen captioned the relatable clip.

The video began with Cohen asking his son Ben, 4, if he’s crying because he’s been given a cookie, to which Ben hilariously responded that it’s not because of the cookie, but rather that he’s had to share a bit with his sister Lucy, 12 months.

“So you’re crying because I gave you a cookie? Is that why you’re crying?” Cohen asked his son. “Because I ripped a little piece off for Lucy so that you would share with her? Well, I think it’s nice for you to share.”

“I shouldn’t have given you the cookie, maybe none of these problems would’ve happened,” Cohen quipped at the end.

The Bravo star recentlyspoke up about his parenting experiencewhile promoting his bookThe Daddy Diaries: The Year I Grew Upin May 2023 at New York City’s 92NY.

“I’m the only gay parent at Ben’s nursery school and the only single parent,” Cohen told his longtime friend and collaboratorAnderson Cooper. He noted that he was “so grateful” for their friendship “because Ben sees Wyatt [Cooper’s son] with two dads.”

He continued, adding that his son “has been saying lately, ‘I want another daddy, I want another daddy.’ And it’s so cool to me that he knows that it would be a daddy.”

“My son has excellent gaydar, what can I say?” Cohen joked.
