Rosie O’Donnell and Elizabeth Rooney-their relationship timeline
Rosie and Elizabeth have been dating since 2017. In October 2018, Rosie proposed to Elizabeth at a Theater benefit. Elizabeth had displayed her engagement ring on her Instagram the same month. Rosie had earlier told US Weekly about the couple’s daily routine. She said:
“I have a 5-year-old with autism [Dakota] and we have a routine going, the two of us. Elizabeth comes every five days and stays for a few days. It’s kind of a great, slow process where [Dakota] does say, ‘I have two brothers and two sisters and two mommies.’ So she’s kind of in the vibe of it, but you know when you have a kid with special needs like that, you try to go in a little bit of a different place. So we both agree that [holding off on wedding plans] would be best for everyone.”
