Sofia Franklyn has released her memoir, "Daddy Issues," detailing her departure from the podcast "Call Her Daddy" and her subsequent fallout with co-host Alex Cooper. The book, which became available on Tuesday, offers Franklyn's account of the events that led to their split in 2020.
Franklyn, who now hosts the podcast "Sofia With an F," described the decision to write the book as a personal one, aimed at processing an experience she didn't initially understand. "Daddy Issues" covers Franklyn's upbringing and the rise and fall of her time with "Call Her Daddy."
After their contract negotiations with Barstool Sports stalled, Franklyn and Cooper parted ways, with Cooper continuing to host "Call Her Daddy" solo. The podcast has since moved to Spotify and is now with SiriusXM.
Notable reactions to the memoir have already surfaced. Social media personality Alix Earle, who has previously had a public falling out with Cooper, shared a TikTok video of herself reading Franklyn's new book. The audiobook version of "Daddy Issues" is available via Audible, with a promotional offer allowing new subscribers to listen for free during a trial period.
