Cory Booker is gearing up to take the oath—of marriage.

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 the 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, with the groom-to-be donning a long green garland while his bride was adorned in a wreath bearing pink and orange flowers.

“I am savoring the soul-affirming wonder of everyday life with my partner, best friend, and now my fiancée,” Booker continued. “We are excited for this journey ahead, having so much fun, and feeling deeply grateful for the love, support, and energy so many of you have shared with us.

While the politician—who previously dated actress Rosario Dawson from 2019 to 2022—has generally kept his romantic life private, he recently divulged the major step he took in his relationship.

“We moved in together,” he revealed on Andy Cohen Live in June. “It's a wonderful thing. She's a really special, extraordinary person.”

Booker also shared that he and Lewis often unwind by watching their favorite series together, and while he admitted to watching Love Is Blind with her in the past, he emphasized that the unscripted genre isn’t his area of expertise.
