Andy Cohen Revealed He Has Found It Difficult to Manage His Time as a Parent 

Cohen discussed navigating parenthood without a partner in a November 2022 interview with Us Weekly. He confided that he has struggled with “time management.” According to Cohen, he also has made an effort to ensure his children know he is present in their lives. 

“As a single dad, I just feel extra responsibility to make them feel like ‘hey, I’m always around,’” shared Cohen. 

Cohen also revealed he does not have plans to give Ben and Lucy another sibling. He shared, however, he may consider doing so in a situation where he was in a relationship with an individual interested in adding to his family. 


Andy Cohen Shared Why He Decided to Have Two Children 

During a February 2023 interview with The New Yorker, Cohen shared why he chose to be a father of two children. He revealed he wanted to give Ben a sibling because he is “an older dad” and “want[s] him to feel like he has a family.”

“And if something, God forbid, ever happened to me I don’t want to abandon him. So he and his sister will always have each other,” asserted the 54-year-old. 

The Bravo personality also noted that he is overjoyed with Lucy. He described his daughter as “so cute” and shared the experience has been “wonderful.”
