Everything You Need to Know About Matt Kaplan, Alex Cooper's Husband
The origin of Cooper and Kaplan's romance began under extraordinary circumstances. In early 2020, amid Cooper's headline-dominating contract renegotiation and eventual solo takeover of *Call Her Daddy* from Barstool Sports, she scheduled a general business meeting with Kaplan over Zoom to explore film and television concepts. Cooper later recounted to her millions of listeners that Kaplan's effortless charm immediately caught her off guard. She nicknamed him "Mr. Sexy Zoom Man" to protect his privacy on air while updating her fanbase on their unfolding connection.
For more than two years, Kaplan remained an unconfirmed figure to casual listeners, even as internet sleuths pieced together travel dates and background audio clues on social media. Cooper had built her brand on radical transparency regarding intimacy and dating, making her protective stance over Kaplan a deliberate editorial shift. By the time Cooper signed her landmark $60 million distribution deal with Spotify in June 2021, Kaplan was already an established anchor in her personal life, providing strategic perspective from his years navigating film studios and corporate talent negotiations.
