Still, Cooper took the plunge. And while she didn’t initially see herself getting married, she later gave Kaplan the green light to propose—revealing their engagement and his identity in April 2023.
“One thing about Matt Kaplan—he is the most romantic man I have ever met in my life,” Cooper told Vogue about the proposal, which consisted of a fake photoshoot so she’d be in a glam, a scavenger hunt at their home and a surprise party full of family and friends. “I’m a very lucky woman.”
She and Kaplan—who was previously married to Claire Holt—tied the knot in Mexico the following year. However, Cooper didn’t want anyone calling her mommy just yet.
“I know he’s going to be the most incredible father to our babies, but I realized I need more time,” she said on a June episode of Call Her Daddy. “And that’s tough to say out loud, but I realized I need time to live a little more before I enter the next beautiful chapter of my life. I’m in no way saying I have to stop everything once I’m a mom. If anything, what I’m saying is I want to be so f–king present.”
