Andy Cohen spills on the ‘robot-like’ good behavior of Anderson Cooper's kids

"Why can't my kids be like that?" Cohen jokes about Cooper’s well-behaved children.

During a delightful appearance on "Live with Kelly and Mark" this Thursday, Andy Cohen, the charismatic host of "Watch What Happens Live," opened up about his close bond with fellow journalist Anderson Cooper. 

Cohen, 55, couldn't help but express his playful jealousy over how well-behaved Cooper's children always seem to be.

In a lighthearted exchange with host Mark Consuelos, Cohen admitted to possibly being the more neurotic parent compared to Cooper. 

"I actually think I might be. You would think that he is…" Cohen joked, acknowledging Cooper’s more mellow temperament.

The conversation took a humorous turn as Cohen vented about the impeccable manners of Cooper's kids. "His kids also don’t ever seem to do anything wrong and it annoys me so much! I’m like, my kid is like just out of a time out and headed into another time out. And his kids are like, ‘Yes daddy, I will do that,' " Cohen shared, mimicking a robot voice to emphasize his point.

Kelly Ripa chimed in, agreeing with Cohen’s observation, "I’m like, ‘Do they ever cry?’ It’s very annoying," she added, echoing Cohen's sentiment that Cooper's children are uncharacteristically well-mannered.

Cohen, father to son Ben, 5, and daughter Lucy, 2, also reflected on his fatherhood journey alongside Cooper, who has two sons, Wyatt, 3, and Sebastian, 2, with ex Benjamin Maisani. 

On a recent Father's Day, Cohen posted a heartwarming photo on Instagram of him and Ben, alongside Cooper with one of his sons, both children playfully propped on their fathers’ shoulders.

Further discussing their shared experiences as parents, Cohen spoke on Bruce Bozzi’s "Table for Two" podcast about how fatherhood has deepened his friendship with Cooper. 

“We are these geriatric patients hobbling around chasing our children, but look it's another bonding thing,” he remarked, looking forward to the unique journey of raising their children as gay dads.
