Congratulations are in order for Democratic New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, who is officially engaged. Booker announced the news on Instagram, introducing the world to his fiancée, Alexis Lewis. According to NJ.com, the couple has been quietly dating for over a year.
Fans were quick to notice the resemblance between Lewis and Booker’s former girlfriend, actress Rosario Dawson. The engagement came as a pleasant surprise to many, as Booker has often been tight-lipped about his personal life.
Lewis, a media and tech executive, has not made any public comments yet, but sources close to the couple say they are planning a private wedding sometime next year. The pair share similar values around public service, education, and equity, making them a power couple in the political space.
This milestone marks a new chapter for the 55-year-old Senator, who has long been one of the most eligible bachelors in Washington. With wedding bells in the near future, it looks like Booker is stepping into a new season, both personally and professionally.
