Alex Cooper is responding to rumors surrounding her marriage to Matt Kaplan.
The 31-year-old Call Her Daddy host opened up about the rumors she and Matt were experiencing “marital issues” during a new episode of her podcast, revealing she had a stressful red carpet event in May while at the YouTube TV Upfronts.
“The truth is my goal was to try to pull Kylie Jenner. I really wanted to,” Alex said, referencing when Kylie mostly hid her pregnancy until Stormi was born. “I just one day wanted to come on and announce like, ‘Oh, I had a baby.’ But the unfortunate reality is that my job does require me to be seen either on my show or out at public events.”
She said she told her husband she wanted to keep the pregnancy a secret until late summer, but that didn’t happen.
“I started hyperventilating. I am having a mental breakdown on this carpet,” Alex recalled. “I’ve got my Spanx literally hiked up to my nipples. We’re about to be late. I am sucking in for dear life. I’m trying to make this work as we walk out the door.”
She and Matt discussed how they would handle things, telling her husband he needed to “match” her energy.
“We are going business. We are going professional, business professional, not business casual, business professional. He’s like, ‘Okay, babe, sure. Whatever you say.’ I’m like, ‘We’re gonna keep it tight. We’re gonna keep it serious. We’re gonna keep it quick,’” she recounted.
Funnily enough, the rumors afterward were just about her and Matt looking “miserable” rather than unveiling her pregnancy.
The podcaster continued, “I said, ‘Babe, that is a win for a win for a win.’ These people, you guys are dissecting Matt and my body language together on the carpet saying, ‘This looks like an arranged marriage. Like, this relationship looks like a business deal.’
By the end of her recollection, Alex assured fans that they don’t need to worry and her and Matt are doing “great.”
