enator Cory Booker is highlighted by several Democrats as a potential future leader of the party – and there has also been speculation about whether he will once again run for president in 2028.
Now, the New Jersey lawmaker has exchanged vows with real estate agent Alexis Lewis.
Sen. Cory Booker is officially a married man!
The New Jersey Democrat tied the knot with real estate professional
Alexis Lewis in two intimate ceremonies in November 2025,
one in Newark, the city that shaped his political career,
and another in Washington, D.C., the hometown that shaped hers.
The celebrations came just weeks after Booker announced their engagement
in a heartfelt Instagram post that quickly captivated the public.
“Alexis is one of the greatest unearned blessings of my life,”
he wrote at the time, sharing sun-soaked images from his beachside proposal in Kauai.
“She has transformed me… helping me ground and center my inner life,
and discover the joys of building a nurturing home with someone you love.”
A love story set up by a friend
Booker and Lewis first met on a blind date in May 2024,
thanks to a determined mutual friend with a reputation for matchmaking.
During a June 2025 appearance on The Shade Room,
Booker admitted that he initially resisted the idea.
“I at first said, ‘No, I’m not interested,’
because she lives in L.A. and I live in New Jersey and D.C.,” he recalled.
But Lewis’ family roots in Washington, D.C. helped bridge the distance. And soon, geography stopped mattering.
