Cory Booker, a democratic senator from New Jersey, announced his engagement to Alexis Lewis September. 2, nearly three months after confirming the couple were living together.
The New Jersey Senator announced that he and Alexis Lewis are engaged after a year and a half of dating, gushing about his new fiancée as he shared several photos of his tropical proposal.
“Alexis is one of the greatest unearned blessings of my life,” he wrote in a post on Instagram Sept. 2. “She has transformed me, helping me to ground and center my inner life, and discover the joys of building a nurturing home with someone you love.”
In photos, Booker, 56, wore a navy blue shirt and beige pants as he got down on one knee for Lewis, who opted for a black top and polka-dot skirt. The couple both wore leis for the romantic occasion.
