She is named after Cooper’s – a US Airman – maternal grandmother Betsy Aldridge-Conrad, who sadly died in July 2020.
Cooper said she had “meant the world” to both him and Scarlett, who he married back in 2019.
30-year-old Cooper, meanwhile, is the youngest of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner’s four children, who he shared with ex-wife Kimberley Conrad.
Hugh, who died aged 91 in 2017, was also father to Christie, 69, David, 66, and Marston, 31.
In October this year, Cooper completed a deployment with the US Air Force in New Jersey, helping families from Afghanistan to resettle after coming over to America.
