Wyatt Morgan Cooper was born with the help of a surrogate and is named after Cooper's late father. "I hope I can be as good a dad as he was," Cooper said.
Cooper, 52, said on the network that he is eternally grateful for the surrogate who carried, cared for and gave birth to Wyatt Cooper, who was born Monday at 7.2 pounds.
"Even as we mourn the loss of loved ones, we're also blessed with new life and new love. So, I just wanted to take a moment and share with you some joyful news of my own: On Monday, I became a father." "Most of all, I am eternally grateful to a remarkable surrogate who carried Wyatt, watched over him lovingly, tenderly, and gave birth to him," Cooper said."It's an extraordinary blessing which she and all surrogates give to families who can't have children."
