"My Date Tonight"... Anthony Anderson♥Rocsi Diaz, Holding Hands in Public at the Golden Globes?

The star of the American sitcom 'Black-ish', Anthony Anderson (55), seems to have found new love after overcoming the pain of divorce. The partner is the famous broadcaster Rocsi Diaz (41).

According to reports from TMZ and Complex on the 13th (Korean time), the two were captured holding hands affectionately after finishing the Netflix Golden Globe afterparty at Spago restaurant in Beverly Hills on the 11th.

◆ "We are dating" - a cool acknowledgment?

On that day, Anderson, dressed in a tuxedo, and Diaz, in a floral dress, did not let go of each other's hands even in front of the press. When a TMZ reporter asked about their relationship, Anderson smiled and replied, "She is my date for the evening". When asked if they were dating, he avoided a definitive answer by saying, "A friend is always a friend," but local media are leaning towards confirming their romantic relationship based on their physical closeness and atmosphere.

◆ A 20-year friendship, has it developed into romance?

Their connection dates back 20 years. Anderson stated, "We have known each other for almost 20 years." In fact, during the mid-2000s when Diaz hosted BET's flagship show '106 & Park', Anderson frequently appeared as a guest, building their friendship.

Recently, the atmosphere between the two has been unusual. They attended the Rod Dido Foundation charity gala together in November last year, and in December, they were spotted having a cozy dinner in LA.

◆ A new beginning for the divorced Anderson

Anderson finalized his divorce from Elvina Stewart, whom he married in 1999, after a long separation and reconciliation in late 2023. This dating rumor is particularly noteworthy as it marks the first time he has publicly shown a romantic side since his divorce. Rocsi Diaz, who usually shies away from revealing her private life, also did not hide her pink mood, smiling brightly next to Anderson on this day.
