Cory Booker and Rosario Dawson aren’t rushing to the altar anytime soon — they’re happy as is.
The New Jersey senator made that clear during a virtual
Thursday episode of VICE TV's "Cari and Jemele (Won’t) Stick To Sports" about his two-year romance with the actress.
During a lighthearted game titled “Seasonal Superlatives with Cory Booker” with hosts Cari Champion and Jamele Hill, the politician was asked whether Dawson, 41, could possibly receive a sparkly holiday offering. "Wow. I already know the gifts I got her, and so I'm not getting her that item,” answered Booker, 51.
Champion asked, “The question in essence is, will there be a diamond under the tree?” to which Booker answered, “I hear what you’re saying. Not from me, no...”
“I didn’t know if you wanted to break a little news here, Senator, if you had a question you might want to ask Rosario around the holidays about the rest of her life. Let us know,” pressed Hill.
“You put me on blast worse than my mom does. It's getting a little hot,” joked Booker.
In August, Dawson who has dated Booker since 2018, moved into his New Jersey home, a milestone for Booker. “This is the first time in my life I've really lived with somebody — and obviously Rosario and I are enjoying and adjusting to that, right?” the former Democratic presidential candidate told
BuzzFeed News that month.
