AceShowbiz - Rosario Dawson has seemingly moved on six months after her split from New Jersey Senator Cory Booker. The actress has hinted at her new romance with poet Nnamdi Okafor on Instagram.
On Monday, August 8, "The Mandalorian" star made use of her Instagram page to introduce her alleged new boyfriend. She posted a video of her and Nnamdi riding on the back of a golf cart at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo. She only captioned it with a red heart and a fire emoji, but the footage speaks more than words.
In the video, the 43-year-old playfully stuck out her tongue and puckered up to the camera as she also captured Nnamdi who was sitting next to her. The Nigerian poet then said to her, "I love you, babe," to which she responded, "I love you too."
In the comment section, Rosario's fans and followers were gushing over the new couple. "You both are gorgeous. This is so sweet. good for you!" one person reacted to the video. A curious fan asked, "New boo?!!" A third person commented, "That look at the end!"
The video also caught the eye of Rosario's former boyfriend Cory, who showed his support by liking her post.
It's unclear when Rosario and Nnamdi have started dating. She was previously in a relationship with the U.S. senator from New Jersey, Cory, from 2019. In May of that year, the "Daredevil" alum confirmed her relationship with the lawmaker as she called him a "wonderful human being."
A year later, the pair started living together with Rosario moving into her then-beau's pad in Newark. "I haven't seen him since February. He is by himself, going between Newark and DC," she said of their long-distance relationship at the time.
"I'm actually in the process of moving, by the way. I'm going to New Jersey. I'm moving to Newark," she went on spilling. "It's time. We were thinking about moving in together anyway, but especially during all of this, it's been really intense." She additionally gushed, "I'm excited."
However, news broke in February of this year that they're no longer together after almost three years together. While neither Rosario nor Cory has explained the cause of their split, a source told E! News that they are "still friends."
