InstagramAll hail the king of Bravo, Andy Cohen!
Today is the TV host's birthday, so if you watch any Bravo series then it is sort a reality TV holiday, right? Well, it's not but it totally should be.
The Watch What Happens Live host and executive producer is celebrating his 51st birthday and we're celebrating right alongside him. Every birthday that we get to honor the hilarious and lovable host, writer and producer is a good one, but 51 is going to be a special one.
Sure, Cohen has already turned the big 5-0, but this year, his birthday party will include a new and very special guest...his son, Benjamin Allen Cohen!
On Feb. 4, 2019, Cohen welcomed his first child via surrogate and now that it's his birthday he will be getting extra love from his baby boy, and we are seriously hoping for matching birthday ensembles from the Cohen men.
Cohen runs with a pretty impressive crowd including, Anderson Cooper, Kelly Ripa, Sarah Jessica Parker and Mark Consuelos, and yet, we have a feeling his son is all the company he needs on his birthday this year.
In fact, because it's The Real Housewives of New Jersey producer's birthday we're giving you all the gift of cuteness. How are we doing this you ask? By showing off baby Benjamin and his proud papa's sweetest moments so far!
Happy birthday, Andy! Keep being a great dad, hilarious Real Housewives reunion host and of course, killing it on WWHL.
