Call Her Daddy’s Toxic Betrayal: The Tea on Cooper & Franklyn

The drama behind “Call Her Daddy” just got messier. Sources are now claiming that podcast co-hosts Alex Cooper and Sofia Franklyn were absolute nightmares to work with from day one—and that their only motivation was chasing clout and paychecks.

“They were extremely difficult from the jump,” an insider dished to Page Six. Apparently, the two were willing to do literally whatever it took to climb the fame ladder. Not exactly the best look for hosts who literally built their brand on girl-girl bonding.

But here’s where it gets juicy: Dave Portnoy—who’s obviously got some major beef with the situation—isn’t letting this go anytime soon. “Dave is an axe to grind person and he’ll never give it up,” the source revealed. Translation? This drama is far from over, and he’s ready to keep receipts.

The whole thing paints a pretty unflattering picture of how the podcast sausage gets made behind closed doors. Two people who rose to fame selling authenticity and friendship apparently had very different priorities all along.
