Rosario Dawson is set to become a grandmother.
The actor daughter Isabella, who Dawson adopted in 2014 when she was 11 years old, is pregnant with her first child. The “Ahsoka” star couldn’t be happier.
“It’s very exciting,” she told the New York Post‘s Page Six column.
Dawson also revealed Isabella is due to give birth next year, and rather than a traditional moniker, the Rent star wants the baby to call her “Glamma.”
Meanwhile, the Seven Pounds star confirmed she is still on good terms with Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.Y.), despite her relationship with him coming to an end last year.
“He’s so wonderful. And he’s got a really good heart,” she said.
Dawson previously insisted it was never “a question” that she would adopt her daughter.
“With my daughter, I didn’t go to an adoption center or anything like that,” she told Health. “My family knew her biological mom, and when we found out she was in foster care, we looked for her. It wasn’t even a question; it was clearly meant to be — she’s my kid.”
The “Dopesick” actor had vowed to adopt an older child when she was very young after learning her dad wasn’t her biological father.
“Around the age of five, I found out my dad wasn’t my biological father,” Dawson recalled. “That was super shocking to me. I’m Daddy’s little girl. I don’t know my biological father. Apparently, he died in 2011, but I didn’t have a relationship with him. At five, it was a lot to take in, and I recall thinking, ‘What if my parents hadn’t met, and I was older, and no one wanted to marry my mom because she had an older kid?'”
“I remember vividly back then saying that, when I was older, I was going to adopt an older child.” the actor said. “It’s wild to think I manifested this when I was younger.”
