Like many other parents, Andy Cohen knows the struggles of cooking for a picky eater.
The father of two returned to Instagram on Saturday (November 16) to share an amusing exchange with his 5-year-old son, Benjamin Allen Cohen. The video showed Andy sitting in his West Village apartment with a plate of scrambled eggs and half of an English muffin — a meal he presumably offered to his little boy. However, it became immediately clear Ben wasn't a fan of that particular breakfast... and he couldn't explain exactly why.
Ben has thoughts on Andy's cooking: "I just don't like..."
“Ben, what’s the problem with the way I make eggs?” the Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host asked while looking off-camera.
“They’re too soft,” Ben was heard in the background.
“They’re too soft? I think these are hard eggs,” Andy replied. “They’re too soft? That’s the feedback…”
“I just don’t like your eggs… for no reason,” Ben added.
“For no reason!? Well, now we’re getting somewhere. It is no reason,” Andy said. “How many episodes of Bluey you think you’re gonna watch?”
Andy captioned the post: “Feedback first thing in the morning — can anyone relate?”
Bravolebs react to Ben's amusing breakfast critique
The post received more than 103,000 “likes” and thousands of comments from fans, friends, and Bravolebrities.
“Sure can,” wrote The Real Housewives of New York City’s Erin Lichy, who is pregnant with baby No. 4.
“Omg this is literally too funny!” The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Gretchen Rossi added.
“[Ben] likes cookies for breakfast,” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Sutton Stracke commented. “He’s established this!”
Andy opens up about being a single dad
Andy welcomed his son via surrogacy in February 2019, about two years before welcoming his daughter, Lucy Eve Cohen. The TV host said he used different surrogates for each child, but confirmed they were “biological siblings.”
The St. Louis, Missouri, native opened up about fatherhood during a September appearance on David Duchovny’s Fail Better podcast, explaining how being a single gay dad can come with a unique kind of pressure.
“I told you earlier that I wasn’t someone that had a lot of self-doubt,” he said. “But, I mean, this will do it to you — being a parent. You start to question everything, especially as a single parent… You don’t want [kids] to feel alone. You don’t wanna feel like, ‘Oh, I’m not, you know, I’m the only one without a mom, or I’m the only one without two dads, or a mom and a dad, whatever.’ And they don’t, I have to say. There are other single parents that they know, and there’s a lot of gay dads in their lives, so they see.”
