Our favorite Zayn Malik and Gig Hadid no longer have dominance on the baby news. Astonished, Amazed, Ecstatic Dad Anderson Cooper – declared the birth of his baby boy, Wyatt Morgan Cooper, Thursday evening in a heartwarming on-air segment and in a detailed heartfelt Instagram post. His baby son was conceived on Monday by means of a Surrogacy and is named after his dad who left Cooper when he was just 10.

CNN anchor and silver fox Anderson Cooper, on his show, said this is something he didn’t believe would ever happen to him, and it still kind of astonishes him.

I want to share with you some joyful news. On Monday, I became a father. This is Wyatt Cooper. He is three days old. He is named after my father, who died when I was ten. I hope I can be as good a dad as he was. My son's middle name is Morgan. It's a family name on my mom's side. I know my mom and dad liked the name morgan because I recently found a list they made 52 years ago when they were trying to think of names for me. Wyatt Morgan Cooper. My son. He was 7.2 lbs at birth, and he is sweet, and soft, and healthy and I am beyond happy. As a gay kid, I never thought it would be possible to have a child, and I’m grateful for all those who have paved the way, and for the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in my son's birth. Most of all, I am grateful to a remarkable surrogate who carried Wyatt, and watched over him lovingly, and tenderly, and gave birth to him. It is an extraordinary blessing – what she, and all surrogates give to families who cant have children. My surrogate has a beautiful family of her own, a wonderfully supportive husband, and kids, and I am incredibly thankful for all the support they have given Wyatt and me. My family is blessed to have this family in our lives I do wish my mom and dad and my brother, Carter, were alive to meet Wyatt, but I like to believe they can see him. I imagine them all together, arms around each other, smiling and laughing, happy to know that their love is alive in me and in Wyatt, and that our family continues.

Cooper furthermore added that he felt it was significant, in the midst of tales about the individuals who are enduring and biting the dust during the coronavirus pandemic – to clutch snapshots of delight.

Cooper, 52, said he lamented that his parents and sibling were not alive to meet his child. Gloria Vanderbilt Cooper’s mother passed away in July at the age of 95.
