They’re best friends already.

Good friends Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper introduced their sons to each other virtually for a special Father’s Day episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” on Sunday.

“I thought it would be fun if they met right now,” Cohen, 52, told viewers as he held his son Benjamin, 1, on his lap.

Pointing to Cooper, 53, and his son, Wyatt, who was born in April, Cohen added, “That’s gonna be your good buddy and we’re gonna travel together and if you like him half as much as I like his daddy, you’re gonna be great friends.”

Cohen welcomed Benjamin in February 2019, while Cooper announced Wyatt’s birth live on CNN earlier this year.

“As a gay kid, I never thought it would be possible to have a child, and I’m grateful for all those who have paved the way, and for the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in my son’s birth,” Cooper said.

While Benjamin and Wyatt may have only met for the first time, the duo has been sharing nannies and clothes for months.

In May, Cooper told Stephen Colbert that Wyatt was wearing hand-me-downs from Benjamin.

“I was planning on going shopping, which I hate to do,” he explained, noting that the coronavirus pandemic changed his plans. “And then online shopping … how do you do that, for baby clothes? Do you go to Buy Buy Baby or Amazon? I don’t know! It just seemed weird. So he just gave me all the clothes.”

“I’m inherently cheap. I like a good value,” Cooper joked. “I wanted my son to be a Depression-era child who grows up wearing hand-me-down clothes.”
