The mystery is solved: Cooper Koch is officially off the market! Yep, the 28-year-old actor—best known for playing Erik Menendez in the Netflix hit Monsters—dropped the relationship bombshell during a juicy episode of Watch What Happens Live on Monday (October 14) in New York City.
Now, let’s get into the drama. A fan dialed into the show (because why wouldn’t you risk eternal shame for a chance to ask Andy Cohen’s guests the most intimate questions?) and asked Cooper:
“Do you have a boyfriend? And if not, how’s the dating game been since Monsters aired?”
Without missing a beat, Cooper flashed a grin, leaned into the mic like a pro, and delivered the line that crushed 1,000 Netflix crushes:
“Good question. I do have a boyfriend, so… sorry!”
Sorry? SORRY?! Somewhere out there, fans are crying into their Erik Menendez fan posters. You can almost hear the collective sigh of people realizing they never had a chance to begin with.
But wait—there’s more. You know exactly which question everyone was waiting for, right? The elephant in the shower. (Or rather, what was or wasn’t in the shower.) Andy, ever the fearless interviewer, got Cooper to address that infamous scene from Monsters. Was that body all-natural, or was there some, uh… Hollywood magic at play? Prosthetic or no prosthetic? 👀
Sadly, the details of his answer might require you to rewatch the interview (because let’s be honest, we live for the suspense). But just know—whatever the answer was, it definitely left fans with their jaws on the floor.
As a bonus surprise, Cooper shared the episode with none other than Finneas—aka Billie Eilish’s brother slash music genius—who was there promoting his latest solo album. Talk about a power duo! Between relationship updates, shower confessions, and new music plugs, it was an episode for the books.
And if you’re wondering, yes, hearts are still breaking across the internet over Cooper’s “sorry.”
