“It's actually a sick thing to say. And in front of his kids — it's crazy,” one person wrote on X.
“Saying you share something special with a man you've never met is sick. I'll start by saying that about all the celebrities I love,” another wrote.
Others write that Cooper lacks self-awareness.
“This hurts to see. It's hard to miss someone you've never met before. How embarrassing.”
The actor has not yet commented on the criticism.
