Alex Cooper is officially a mom. The 'Call Her Daddy' host and her husband, Matt Kaplan, have welcomed their first child, a baby boy, entertainment outlets reported on Wednesday.
Cooper shared a newborn photo marked with a blue heart, the announcement style that has become standard for creator-celebrities who built their audiences by narrating their own lives — and who now share the biggest milestones the same way.
Cooper turned 'Call Her Daddy' from a bedroom recording into one of podcasting's defining franchises, with Kaplan, a film producer, part of the business as well as the family story listeners have followed through their engagement and wedding coverage.
The baby news led Wednesday's entertainment roundups, ahead of a hospital call reported at Christina Applegate's home and Sean 'Diddy' Combs' reported prison move — a reminder of how completely podcast hosts now sit inside the celebrity news cycle they once only commented on.
