Andy Cohen has expressed his gratitude for the surrogate who carried and gave birth to his newborn daughter Lucy. The Watch What Happens Live host, 53, expanded his family with the birth of his daughter on 29 April.

On Monday, the Bravo host returned to his late-night show for the first time since welcoming his daughter, during which he took the opportunity to thank his “incredible surrogate” for her help. “I didn’t do this on my own, I have to once again thank my incredible surrogate.

What a partner and friend she has been to me,” Cohen said, before revealing that his surrogate was in the front row of the last show taped before Lucy’s birth.

The host then joked that he briefly thought “we were going to have a e a real clubhouse baby, right here”. Cohen then reiterated his gratitude for his surrogate, as well as the surrogacy laws in New York state. “I am so grateful for her, and grateful that she could deliver and carry Lucy in New York state where surrogacy is now legal, with a law giving surrogates all the rights and protections they so strongly deserve,” Cohen said.
