An unnamed source told Marie Claire in November 2021 that Cory Booker and Rosario Dawson had made the decision to end their relationship over the summer. According to the insider, “The distance made it difficult.” Though the couple had technically moved in together in New Jersey, Booker was of course often in Washington D.C. while Dawson was away filming for various TV and movie projects. It also looks like the last time either made an appearance on the other’s social media was back in May 2021, when Booker tagged Dawson in a photo she took of him with a toy light saber on Instagram. Though her relationship with Booker may have ended, Dawson has continued to shout out Democratic causes like voting rights.
We don’t know much else about the split, but you can take comfort in the fact it hasn’t killed Booker’s belief in love. The senator took to Twitter on Valentine’s Day to write, “Love is radical. Love is resilient. Love is righteous. Celebrate love everyday. Happy Valentine’s Day!”
Maybe true love really is forever after all.
