Laverne Cox breaks silence on breakup with MAGA boyfriend

Laverne Cox published a new book where she's revealing details about her relationship with a pro-Donald Trump police officer.

Transcendent, the new book out Tuesday, describes her five-year relationship with the cop and what happened when they ultimately ended the relationship, The Root reported.

“My ex-boyfriend, when we met five years ago, at the height of the pandemic, he was 26, and I was 48. He was a blonde-haired, blue-eyed MAGA Republican voter who is a New York City police officer,” she said in a video to Instagram when she talked about it.

Cox isn't merely a proud transgender woman; she's also solidly progressive.

At first, he lied about what he did for a living. After about 3-and-a-half years, "his politics and his head examined became clear."

During an episode of "The View," Cox said that he was seemingly good to her, even "better" than some previous relationships. Over time, however, she said she was exposed to parts of his "true colors" that weren't acceptable to her.

“People show you who they are eventually,” Cox said. She added that she never intended to fall in love with him or develop any deep feelings. By the time she understood where he was politically, she was in too deep.

“We didn’t plan to fall in love, but we did. Later, his political affiliation became obvious, but I’d already had feelings for him and wanted to see him as a human being, beyond that,” she said.

Over time, “his politics and his unexamined life became clear," she added.

“I love him, but I love myself more, and staying in this relationship, I betrayed myself — not just my political values, because, in theory, I’d like to believe we can have relationships across political differences. But there was a value difference,” she explained.

“Fascism is not consistent with my values. I am an anti-fascist. I never adopted any of my ex’s politics.”
