The queen of confessional podcasting is about to become a mom. Alex Cooper pregnant news broke when the Call Her Daddy host revealed she and her husband Matt Kaplan are expecting their first child together. The announcement sent waves through her massive fanbase, who have followed her journey from raunchy roommate stories to marriage and now motherhood.
Cooper, who built an empire on unfiltered conversations about sex, relationships, and mental health, shared the news in characteristically honest fashion. She and Kaplan, a film producer known for young adult adaptations, married in April 2024 in a stunning Mexico ceremony. Now just over two years later, they are preparing for a very different kind of production: parenthood.
The pregnancy marks a major evolution for the media personality. While her show has matured alongside her audience, moving from barstool chaos to a $60 million Spotify deal and now her own Unwell Network — Cooper has never shied away from vulnerability. Fans have watched her navigate heartbreak, career explosions, and finding the right partner.
The show will continue, though likely with a new layer of content. Cooper has hinted at wanting children for over a year. Now that the secret is out, listeners can expect episodes tackling fertility, body changes, and the terror and thrill of becoming a mother. Kaplan has been a quiet presence on the show. That may change soon.
The due date has not been announced. But one thing is certain: the daddy podcast just got a real one.
