Andy Cohen said that he and his longtime pal Anderson Cooper could “have some good threesomes.”
The “Watch What Happens Live” host joked about the idea of a ménage à trois with the CNN host on Wednesday’s episode of “Sherri” with Sherri Shepherd but was quick to add that they are strictly platonic.
“[A threesome] is what it would take, because we are truly just friends. We really are,” Cohen, 54, said, before jokingly adding that maybe he’s looking for a “throuple situation.”
The Bravo host — who has co-hosted “New Years Eve Live” with Cooper, 55, since 2017 — affectionately spoke of the broadcast journalist, telling Shepherd that he loves Cooper “to death” and that he enjoys “being part of a duo.”
Adding that he and Cooper have gotten “so much closer over the years,” Cohen said that the two have “so much fun” together and that he loves “making [Cooper] giggle.”
The two TV personalities first met after they were set up on a blind date in the early ’90s, but after speaking on the phone ahead of the meet-up, they decided to call it off. Despite not feeling a spark romantically, the two opened the door to a longtime friendship.
Cohen, who has two young children: Lucy, 1, and Benjamin, 4, opened up in 2022 about his dating life in an episode of SiriusXM’s Stern Show Summer School, explaining that dating as a single father is “emotionally chaotic.”
“Dating is another story because you know, I haven’t, there are two kinds of people, people that you wanna date and people that you…” Cohen said before trailing off, to which co-host Rahsaan Rogers said, “People that you wanna bang.”
Cooper has been dating Benjamin Maisani since 2009 and share two children, Wyatt, 3, and Sebastian, 1.
