Chris Rock and New Girlfriend Simone Henault Enjoy PDA-Filled Outing: ‘Fully in the Honeymoon Phase’
Chris Rock is officially in his honeymoon phase — the comedian, 61, is going public with new girlfriend Simone Henault after years of keeping his dating life tightly under wraps.
Chris Rock and Simone Henault couldn’t hide their affection during a recent stroll in Manhattan, as a source reveals the comedian, 61, met the content strategist “through mutual friends.”
Between hand holds and public bench smooches, the new couple, who also enjoyed a cozy outing in Santa Monica last month, “are fully in the honeymoon phase and having a total blast.”
Rock, who was wed to Malaak Compton-Rock for 20 years, has kept tight-lipped about his dating life since his 2016 divorce. But the source claims he’s less concerned with optics now that daughters Lola, 23, and Zahra, 21, are grown. “They’re happy for him to go out there and enjoy himself. It’s a big reason he’s stepping out with Simone and openly confirming how happy he is.”
