OHMYGOSSIP — Anderson Cooper wishes he had become a father sooner.
The CNN news anchor – who has Wyatt Morgan, seven months, with partner Benjamin Maisani – only wishes he had become a dad before he did as he has found fatherhood “extraordinary”.
He said: “I don’t think I would have made the decision if I didn’t feel I was really ready. And I definitely have, yeah, I just feel like this is absolutely what I should be doing.
“And I mean, I wish I had done it sooner and it’s just, it’s extraordinary to me, sort of the amount of, I mean, I’ve been, been able to spend the whole, days. I mean, all my time with him really, during this pandemic and it’s just, it’s been amazing.”
The 53-year-old journalist doesn’t even remember what he was doing before he became a dad.
Speaking on SiriusXM’s Quarantined with Bruce, he added: “And I can’t, I’ve never like woken up early in the morning. I now like bolt out of bed at 7:00 without an alarm clock or 6:30. And I want to be there when he wakes up at 8:45 and I love, I mean, I just love every aspect of it and it’s just truly the greatest thing ever. And I sort of just feel like I, what was I doing before?”
Meanwhile, Anderson previously admitted he feels his “life has begun” now he is a father.
He shared: “When I was 12 years old and knew I was gay and thought about my life, it always upset me because I thought, ‘I will never be able to have a kid.’ This is a dream come true. It feels like my life has actually begun. There’s something about having a child that makes you feel connected to what is happening and you want to make sure that the world this child is growing up in is a better one. You suddenly worry much more about the future of all of us.”
