New York Post • • general
Key Points:
- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has sparked breakup rumors with her fiancé Riley Roberts after being seen without her engagement ring and not mentioning him in recent public appearances.
- Ocasio-Cortez recently announced she was freezing her eggs to feel more in control of her life, and when asked about Roberts' support, she only mentioned support from "all of my loved ones," avoiding direct reference to him.
- Speculation within Democratic circles suggests the couple may have split due to Ocasio-Cortez's political ambitions, including potential runs for the 2028 presidential nomination or U.S. Senate.
- Roberts was controversially listed as Ocasio-Cortez's "spouse" to accept gifts and travel benefits, including a Met Gala ticket, despite not fitting the formal definition of a spouse for House ethics rules.
- The couple, who dated since college and got engaged in 2022, have kept their relationship largely private, but insiders and critics have questioned the dynamics of their partnership over the years.
