ANDERSON COOPER & BENJAMIN MAISANI

Political commentator Anderson Cooper and Benjamin Maisani may have ended their romance, but not their relationship as co-parents. The degree of their friendship is beyond palpable, and they are now the best of friends. Maisani even reportedly plans to adopt the CNN anchor’s eldest son, Wyatt Morgan Cooper. Isn’t that sweet?

Cooper stressed they are family, so Wyatt’s name will be soon changed to Maisani-Cooper. He even revealed that the kid calls him ‘Daddy,’ while the child called his ex ‘Papa.’ The broadcaster also recently welcomed his second son, Sebastian Luke, and they are set to raise the two boys together. Cooper and Maisani may have ended their romantic relationship in 2018, but they have remained close since then. Though they have an unusual setup, Cooper is confident that the businessman will be a great dad to his kids.
