ANDY Cohen has surprised fans after making an NSFW comment about his pal Anderson Cooper in a new post.
The Bravo king's remark on Instagram prompted viewers to beg for the long-time friends to "date."
It all started when Andy, 54, shared a snap of Anderson, 55, on Saturday sitting in his New York City home while interviewing him for a new special.
The CNN journalist looked directly at the camera with his legs crossed and a stack of papers on his lap.
He sported a blue buttoned-down dress shirt, gray jeans, and blue shoes as he sifted through the documents.
A camera crew behind him was recording the sit-down, which appeared to be on pause for the photo opp.
Andy gave a shout-out to his BFF in the caption and teased their newest collaboration.
"My favorite Zaddy in my living room… pummeling me with hard hitting questions!" the TV personality wrote.
"He’s profiling me on CBS Sunday Morning tomorrow in advance of #DaddyDiaries publication day Tuesday. Check it out!"
Fans immediately gushed over the duo's close bond and pleaded for them to form a romantic relationship.
"If you two would JUST get together you would be such an amazing power couple!" one person wrote with several red hearts and fire emojis.
"Stop it RN and get married," insisted another.
"All the tension in that caption!" said a third.
So this is love......" one more wrote, adding a heart eyes emoji.
JUST FRIENDS
The media have often questioned Andy and Anderson's closeness, although the pair have repeatedly claimed they're just friends.
In fact, the pals met after being set up on a blind date by a mutual friend in the 1990s.
They dished about their meeting to Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show, with Anderson saying: “I knew within 45 seconds, I was never going on a date with Andy Cohen."
He continued: "I imagined him in like a Bluetooth headset, gesticulating. He was all excited, and he violated my cardinal rule, which is he asked me about my mom within the first minute of talking to me."
Andy chimed in, saying: "I wanted to date the Vanderbilt boy! I was excited."
Jimmy asked Andy if he remembered the call that way, and he responded, "I remember that something that I did made him shut down, so now I know."
Anderson added: "It wasn't even a question. It was just, 'Your mother is Gloria Vanderbilt,' and I was like, 'OK, yeah, this is not happening.'"
CLOSE BOND
Despite the encounter and chatter about Anderson's famous mother, the two went on to become best friends and traveled together with mutual acquaintances on several occasions.
Andy told USA Today that their relationship has blossomed through the years, saying: "We've gotten much closer since I've had the talk show and since we've been on tour together.
"I mean, we've been friends for 25 years. He's just an incredibly loyal and caring and sensitive and great friend."
Andy and Anderson have done numerous projects together and have been co-hosts of CNN's New Year's Eve Live program.
Their children also share the same tight relationship as they are both fathers of two.
Anderson is a dad to a three-year-old son, Wyatt, and a one-year-old son, Sebastian, while Andy is a father of a four-year-old son, Benjamin, and a one-year-old daughter, Lucy.
