Andy Cohen’s new photo of his daughter Lucy proves that she’s an absolute darling. The Bravo TV host shared a picture today of his “mermaid” baby, and they look so happy together on vacation in Miami, Florida.
“Me and my mermaid 🧜♀️,” Cohen captioned a picture of him and his daughter on Instagram, who was born via surrogate in April 2022. The 1-year-old is wearing a pink swimsuit with ruffle sleeves and smiley faces in multiple colors. She sits on her dad’s hip, with her arm around his shoulders, as she smiles at the camera with a huge, toothy grin. Her blonde hair is up in a messy bun on her head, and she is so cute in the water with her dad (who has an identical big smile on his face!).
People couldn’t help but notice how cute Lucy is. “Daddy and his princess! The cutest mermaid ever!!” one person wrote.
“Omg my uterus 😍😍😍,” someone else said.
“Delicious. Fam time is the BEST ❤️” another commented.
“I know you don’t like posting too many pictures of the kids but this is a gem so thanks for sharing! You both look adorable! ☺️” someone else wrote.
The Watch What Happens Live host does post about his kids, but he doesn’t often show their faces. He talked about why in a November 2023 interview with TODAY.
“The last time I showed Ben’s face [on social media] was when I got my star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And Lucy, I’m teetering towards not showing anymore,” Cohen told the outlet.
“I just feel funny about it,” he continued. “People need to understand that my kids are not me and they didn’t sign up for this.” His mom Evelyn Cohen also doesn’t want him to post their faces. “I’m figuring it out as I go,” he added. “My mom is really on me about it. She’s really like, ‘You have to stop.’ She was very vocal about, ‘OK, you can’t show Ben anymore. When are you going to stop showing Lucy?’”
He doesn’t go into exactly why he stopped showing Ben but still shows Lucy, but it could be because his 4-year-old is old enough now to not want his picture taken or posted on the internet.
On the other hand, Ben is all about leaning into his dad’s celebrity status when it benefits him. In fact, he recently embarrassed his dad in a public way.
“On a plane with the kids and Ben just announced ‘Everybody meet my Dad Andy Cohen’ 😳,” Cohen wrote on Threads this week. Can you imagine?
He shared a similar story on his Daddy Diaries podcast. In a clip shared to his Instagram story today, Cohen wrssaid, “We were in several stores, and every time I went in the dressing room, I was like, ‘Ben, come in the dressing room and tell me how this shirt looks.”
“And I’m changing. Every time I would take me shirt off, Ben screamed in the store,” Cohen continued. “’Andy Cohen is naked in here! Andy Cohen is naked in here!’” How embarrassing!
“I’m like, ‘Ben. Chill out,’” Cohen recalled. “And then, of course, I’m screaming, ‘I’m not naked! I’m not naked!”
“He’s like, ‘Yes, you are.’”
“Maybe that’s how you will find a boyfriend,” co-host John Hill quipped.
Kids certainly keep you on your toes — but they’re irresistible cute at this age, too, and that more than makes up for it!
These celebrity LGBTQ+ families are proving that love is love.
