Alex Cooper and Matt Kaplan Address Marital Tension Rumors

Alex Cooper, host of "Call Her Daddy," and her husband, film producer Matt Kaplan, made a public appearance together at the 2026 YouTube Upfront in New York City, putting on a united front amidst rumors of marital discord. This appearance follows reports earlier in May that the couple was experiencing "tension" and sleeping in separate rooms, according to the Daily Mail. Kaplan was also reportedly accused of unprofessional behavior within the Unwell Network, further fueling speculation.

At the YouTube Upfront, Cooper and Kaplan were seen holding hands and posing for photos. Cooper wore a black blazer and pants, while Kaplan sported a black sweater and pants. The event served as a platform to announce Cooper's new projects with YouTube through her production company, Unwell Productions. These include a new season of "Unwell Games," a Thanksgiving-themed miniseries called "Pot Stirrer," a microdrama titled "Holiday Hard Launch," and a docuseries focused on the Met Gala preparations, "Before the Steps."

Adding to the media attention, Cooper is also embroiled in a public feud with Alix Earle, a former collaborator at Unwell Network. Cooper has publicly called out Earle's "passive-aggressive" behavior, urging her to address the situation. While Earle has acknowledged the feud, she has downplayed its significance, stating she "love[s] everyone" during a recent interview on the "Today" show. The dynamic between Cooper and Earle continues to be a topic of interest, particularly among fans of both personalities.

There is no official confirmation of a divorce. Their recent public appearance together suggests they are addressing the rumors.

The details of the feud are not entirely clear, but it involves Cooper calling out Earle's "passive-aggressive" behavior after Earle’s departure from the Unwell Network.

Cooper is launching "Unwell Games," "Pot Stirrer," "Holiday Hard Launch," and "Before the Steps" through her production company, Unwell Productions.
