“Her big brother can’t wait to meet her! Thank you to my rock star surrogate (ALL surrogates are rockstars, by the way) and everyone who helped make this miracle happen. I’m so happy,” he gushed. Before adding, “I’M A GIRL-DAD!!!!!” As you might expect, Andy’s surprise announcement garnered a lot of attention from his very famous friends.
Sarah Jessica Parker commented, “Oh Lucy Eve we are madly in love with you already. Congratulations Andy. All hands on deck and ready. Ben is a big brother!!!!! So much love from our family to yours!!”
Anderson Cooper chimed in with, “Amazing! Congratulations! Welcome Lucy!!!!” While John Mayer said, “Hello sweet girl! Congrats Andy! ‘Doing her star chart right now!!!”
And former talk show host Ricki Lake said, “Mazel Tov!!!!!! And bless your amazing surrogate! Welcome to the world little Lucy! I love you.”
And let’s not forget the plethora of ‘Real Housewives’ who also left messages of love and support for Andy and his new addition.
RHOC alum Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson commented “Congratulations daddy” and “Congratulations! I love that name” along with heart emojis, while RHONJ’s Melissa Gorga said “Lucy!!!!! I love it!!! Omg!!!! I knew it! Congrats!!” Housewives from other franchises also expressed similar sentiments of joy.
This is the second child for Cohen, who also welcomed son Benjamin Allen Cohen via surrogate on February 4, 2019. Cohen took to Instagram to share the news that he was a new father. “WOW! This is my son, Benjamin Allen Cohen,’ Cohen said. “He is 9 lbs 2 ounces !! 20 inches !! Born at 6:35 pm, PT. He is named after my grandfather Ben Allen. I’m in love. And speechless. And eternally grateful to an incredible surrogate. And I’m a dad. Wow.
While it is still unclear where the inspiration behind the name ‘Lucy’ came from, many are suspecting that it’s a nod to the late Lucille Ball of ‘I Love Lucy’ fame.
