Alexandra Cooper debuted her first solo episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast Wednesday after a dramatic split with former co-host Sofia Franklyn.

In an episode called “The Funeral,” Cooper dished on her breakup with Franklyn — a tangled drama that spilled all over the internet last week and even involved a cameo by Justin Bieber’s manager, Scooter Braun, who haplessly wandered into the fray.

Cooper divulged details of Franklyn’s relationship with HBO Sports executive Peter Nelson, whom she called selfishly invested in their career and a “creeper.” Neither HBO nor Nelson have responded to The Post’s request for comment.

“The last back-and-forth, big communication I had with Sofia was f - - king awful,” said Cooper, who is no longer living with Franklyn.

Cooper also claims the interlopers included agents at William Morris Endeavor, who Cooper said tried to get involved in contract negotiations.

“I don’t even know the guy,” Cooper said of Braun.

Cooper reserved the most scorn for Nelson, whom she and Franklyn nicknamed Suitman.

Cooper claims he was more of a career-killer for his girlfriend, speculating that he did so in the hopes of eventually leaving HBO and starting his own podcast company.

When it came down to the contentious “Call Her Daddy” contract renegotiations, Cooper said Nelson was so eager to be hands-on that Cooper’s family raised red flags about his intentions.

“He would always mention to us, ‘You’re going to need a business manager.’ As months went on, [it was like,] ‘Oh, wonderful, we’re just f - - ked.’ It was just so obvious that he was there … not just out of the goodness of his princess’ heart.” Instead, Cooper claims, he wanted a “piece of the pie.”.

Cooper, who claimed she did an inordinate amount of the labor, including editing, brand building and social media, said she eventually started to feel she was in a business relationship with Nelson instead of Franklyn.

“I felt like it was me and Peter Nelson and it felt like my friend was checked out,” said Cooper, adding that Franklyn seemed naive and frequently said she wanted to become big enough to “make money in her sleep.” To which Cooper retorted, “Sweetheart, you have to first work to make money in your sleep.”.

She recalled their first work trip to LA, which was also early in Franklyn’s relationship with Nelson.

“He just so happened to also schedule a business-meeting trip that weekend to LA,” Cooper said, adding that Franklyn began sneaking around and making excuses to see Nelson throughout the trip.

“Sofia wanted to go see Peter … I wanted to go party … but I also knew, like, we needed to be a united front.

Cooper claimed that Franklyn began to be less involved in the podcast as her relationship with Nelson progressed?

And despite Cooper’s less-than-charitable words about her interactions with Franklyn, she said people online should lay off her former best friend
