Rosario Dawson: actress, singer, Jersey girl.
The 41-year-old Hollywood star is getting serious with beau, senator Cory Booker, and has announced that she will be moving to Newark to be with him once the coronavirus pandemic subsides.
“I haven’t seen him since February. He is by himself, going between Newark and (Washington),” Dawson recently told filmmaker Kevin Smith.
She added that she had been on the West Coast taking care of her father, who had pancreatic cancer surgery last November.
“I’m actually in the process of moving, by the way. I’m going to New Jersey. I’m moving to Newark,” said the “Men in Black II” star. “It’s time. We were thinking about moving in together anyway, but especially during all of this, it’s been really intense. I’m excited.”
The couple has been dating since late 2018 after meeting at a fundraiser, according to reports.
“I feel like I have someone in the center of the storm with me,” Dawson said of her squeeze. “We’re here and we’re thriving. And I want more of that. And I want that for the rest of my life.”
Despite the hectic nature of their schedules and the imposing distance, Booker stated that they’re making the relationship work.
“Look, both of us, you know, we’ve had relationships, but I’m not sure if I’ve ever fully given myself over to a relationship as much as I have with her and allowed myself to be as vulnerable,” the 51-year-old pol previously told The Washington Post.
In a Wednesday interview with Andy Cohen, Booker briefly touched upon his relationship with Dawson after the “Watch What Happens Live” host asked if there had been any friction amid the couple after Booker initially endorsed Joe Biden as the Democratic Party presidential nominee while Dawson had thrown her hat in the ring for Bernie Sanders.
“Awkward, no,” Booker told Cohen. “Because I think it was awkward for a lot of people who were watching a couple support different candidates but I like Bernie Sanders,” touting the Vermont senator’s push for marijuana reform and importing prescription drugs from Canada.
