Anderson Cooper, the host of CNN’s primetime program, appears to be one of the few network personalities who has not been involved in a scandal recently.

After the introduction and after sharing some significant information, the presenter concluded his program. According to the account, his new son, Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper, was born alongside Benjamin Maisani, a former partner.

“There’s a lot to get to tonight. But I wanted to start off with some good news, which also happens to be very personal news,” the host said to start the show. “In April 2020, in the early dark days of the pandemic, you may recall I announced the birth of my son, Wyatt. These are the pictures I showed of Wyatt then, taken just days after he was born.”

“Well, this is Wyatt today. He is nearly 22 months old, and he is sweet and funny and the greatest joy in my life. If he looks particularly happy in this picture, it’s because he now has a baby brother. His name is Sebastian, and I would like you to meet him,” he stated before displaying pictures of the newborn.

“This is Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper. He was 6.8 pounds at birth and he is healthy and happy,” he said, showing a video of the infant hiccupping, adding, “Even his occasional hiccups are to me adorable.”

In order to give both of his children the same last name, he claimed that his ex-partner was his closest friend and that he is adopting Sebastian.

“We want to thank the amazing doctors and nurses who helped bring Sebastian into the world, and most of all, I thank the surrogate who carried Sebastian and gave birth to him. The sacrifices she and her family — her entire family made — and the love that they gave Sebastian this past year has been extraordinary,” the host said.

“We’ll never forget the kindness and all of her and her family and all surrogates who helped bring new life and new love into the world,” he said.

“When I announced Wyatt’s birth, I said that I like to imagine my mom and dad and brother, all of whom are no longer alive, with their arms around each other, smiling and joyful at his birth.”

“Well, these past 22 months, I felt them watching over us, very strongly. And I already feel their love for Sebastian. The family I was born into may be gone, but I feel them alive in the family that we’ve created, new love and new life,” he said. CONTINUE READING…
