Is Chris Rock Single Again?
GettyA new report by the Daily Mail claims sources saw Rock on the celebrity dating app, Raya. His profile was accessible to women in London, England. The publication reports that a woman saw his profile. “I couldn’t believe it when Chris Rock suddenly came up on my Raya,” the source told Daily Mail. “I’m 25, so there is a 36-year age gap between us. I definitely wasn’t expecting that. He’s obviously incredibly famous, so I was shocked to see him in the first place – but especially because I thought he had a girlfriend.”
The Raya profile states that Rock is 61, and reads, “Director / writer / comedian, NY / LA.” Daily Mail reports that the profile links to his official Instagram account.
The last time Rock and Henault were seen in public was on July 2 at Wimbledon, when they attended day four of the Championship.

At some point I’ll have a woman and whatever, and hopefully she’ll be with me for a while, and one day I won’t be able to make it up the steps, and I’ll put her in my will. ‘I can’t get up the stairs — somebody get me my will! I gotta put Angie in my will.'”
