Alex Cooper announced on May 17, 2026, that she and her husband, Matt Kaplan are expecting their first child. The news comes just days after the couple made a high-profile public appearance at the YouTube Brandcast event in New York City.
While Alex Cooper continues to dominate the charts, she recently reflected on the chaotic origins of Call Her Daddy, admitting, “I had no idea what I was doing. I'd never listened to a podcast in my life before I recorded that.” This candid admission highlights her ongoing struggle to balance professional transparency with the privacy of her personal life.
On the show, Alex Cooper remains the quintessential “founding father,” greeting her audience with her signature, “What is up, daddy gang? It is your founding father, Alex Cooper, with Call Her Daddy.” The show’s tone shifts sharply when she pivots to heavy topics, such as when Audrina Patridge detailed her experiences with toxic relationship dynamics and projection.
As Alex Cooper prepares for motherhood, the podcast community is watching to see how her pivot to maternity content will mesh with the raw, often volatile relationship storytelling that defined her early career. With her platform firmly established, the expectation is that she will continue to curate the intimate, high-stakes interviews that keep the “daddy gang” engaged.
