Anderson Cooper Details His Mom’s “Crazy” Idea to Be His Surrogate
Anderson Cooper is revealing the very unexpected conversation he once had with his late mom Gloria Vanderbilt.
While the CNN host now has his hands full now with two young kids, he revealed that years before deciding to start a family his mom approached him and offered to be his surrogate.
“This is like eight years before I decided to have a child,” Anderson said in a Sept. 26 clip from Sirius XM’s The Howard Stern Show. “But my mom really wanted me to have a kid, and she called me up one time and she was like, ‘Honey, there’s something I really need to talk to you about it.”
While he noted that their conversations often began as such, with him joking that they normally involved redecorating her apartment or her needing him “to hide a body,” the Anderson Cooper 360 host explained that after he “steeled himself” to go talk to her, he was utterly shocked by what she told him.
“She was like, ‘Well the most amazing thing happened,'” he recalled. “‘I went to the gynecologist the other day,’—preface this, is that my mom was 85 at the time—‘and she said the most amazing thing, she told me ‘I could still bear children.'”
