Chris Rock appears to have entered a new romantic chapter, as the comedian was recently seen sharing an intimate moment with Simone Henault during a casual walk in New York City. On March 31, the 61-year-old actor and comedian was photographed in Manhattan’s SoHo district alongside Henault, a DJ and creative producer.
The duo seemed at ease as they strolled through a park, eventually sitting on a bench where they shared a kiss, marking their first public display of affection. Simone Henault, who identifies as a content strategist on social media, has a diverse background including roles as a wardrobe stylist and producer at Google, as detailed in her online portfolio.
In a significant development, this outing has intensified speculation about Rock’s new relationship status. Notably, the pair were also seen together last month in Santa Monica, California, leaving the popular restaurant Giorgio Baldi before getting into a car, further fueling rumors of their romance.
Chris Rock was married to Malaak Compton-Rock from 1996 until their divorce in 2016. The former couple share two daughters, Lola and Zahra, both now adults. In recent years, Rock has been romantically linked to actress and screenwriter Lake Bell.
