Andy Cohen is a dad!

The TV producer and host took to social media to welcome his new baby boy.

“Wow! This is my son, Benjamin Allen Cohen…He is named after my grandfather Ben Allen,” he says on Instagram. “I’m in love. And speechless. And eternally grateful to an incredible surrogate. And I’m a dad. Wow.”

Cohen first delighted fans back in December when he revealed on Watch What Happens Live that he’d be becoming a father via surrogate.

"Family means everything to me, and having one of my own is something I’ve wanted in my heart for my entire life. And while it has taken me longer than most to get there, I cannot wait for what I envision will be my most rewarding chapter yet,” he said to fans.

Last month, his Bravo family threw him an adorable baby shower to celebrate the upcoming arrival of his son. And, of course, all of his Real Houeswives were in attendance.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West recently shared their own exciting baby news. The couple will be welcoming their fourth child via surrogate. Kardashian has been open about suffering from fertility challenges during her pregnancies with daughter North and son Saint, which is what led the couple to have their third child, Chicago, via surrogate as well.
