Cory Booker confirms he’s dating someone special

WASHINGTON — Sen. Cory Booker confirmed Tuesday that there’s a special lady in his life.

“I got a boo,” he said on the nationally syndicated radio show “The Breakfast Club.”

Page Six reported last month that Booker, a 49-year-old Democratic presidential hopeful, was dating actress and activist Rosario Dawson.

Booker refused to tell The Post whether Dawson was his girlfriend during an appearance at the US Conference of Mayors in DC later in the month.

But on the radio show, he admitted he’s paired up.

“Before I declared for president, I’m dating someone that’s really special to me,” he said, not revealing her name.

Booker was asked whether being a “bachelor in a basement apartment” could impact his chances of winning the 2020 presidential race.

“First of all, there’s two more years until I might fulfill this duty, so give me some time,” he responded. “My girlfriend might listen to this.”

“I think that if Donald Trump can get elected president at this point with the personal life that he has, then anybody can,” Booker said.

He admitted that he’d prefer not to discuss his personal life.

“Now look please, what have we gotten myself right into, man,” Booker said, laughing. “Of all the issues we’ve talked about, this is the most uncomfortable part of this interview.”
