Cheryl Hines breaks silence on RFK Jr.’s ‘affair’ with political journalist Olivia Nuzzi

Cheryl Hines has opened up about her relationship with husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and has spoken about how she dealt with rumors about her alleged sexting relationship.

Rumors had circulated that Hines planned to divorce the former presidential candidate following allegations that he had a sexting relationship with political reporter Olivia Nuzzi.

The actress had not previously spoken publicly about the scandal, but was spotted wearing her wedding ring and a strapless black dress at the Groundlings’ 50th anniversary event in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Hines said she is not concerned about the current rumors circulating about her husband’s alleged scandal with the suspended New York magazine reporter.

‘Many emotions with rumours! But, it will all be in my book. I’m writing a book. I’ve been taking notes, serious notes,” she told US Weekly.

“People have a lot of feelings about politics, especially in Hollywood, and I don’t know. I mean, so far I feel like it’s okay.

“I’m fine having conversations like that with people and for me it doesn’t define anyone. For some people it does and it’s like you can’t control it. There’s nothing I can do about it so I just have to let it wash over me.” .

The Emmy-nominated actress, best known as Cheryl on HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, told the outlet that she is focusing on her family.

‘They are fun. I mean, if I had a boring family it would be hard. And I think just trying to embrace the unknown and instead of fighting it, it’s kind of trying to embrace it and say yes to whatever comes your way,” she said.

“Just to let it flow and find the little moments and not take anything too seriously. Even though I’m in very serious situations.’

Late last month, Nuzzi, 31, New York magazine’s star Washington, D.C. political correspondent, admitted to a sexting relationship with Kennedy, 70, while covering his campaign.

Kennedy, who suspended his independent bid for the presidency and threw his support behind Donald Trump in August, claimed the two had only met once when Nuzzi interviewed him for the magazine.

Nuzzi’s ex-fiancé Ryan Lizza is reportedly taking a “leave of absence” following a court filing alleging he blackmailed her over the rumored affair.

Nuzzi’s ex-fiancé Ryan Lizza (R) is reportedly taking a “leave of absence” after a bombshell court filing alleges he blackmailed her over the rumored romance.

She claimed in DC Supreme Court that Lizza “explicitly threatened to release personal information about me in order to destroy my life, career and reputation, a threat she has carried out ever since.”

Last week, Lizza claimed Kennedy wanted to “possess, control and impregnate” ex-girlfriend Olivia Nuzzi as she vehemently denied blackmail allegations in court.

He says he never hacked into any of Nuzzi’s devices, but that she explained the relationship and its nature to him.

Rumors swirled about Hines possibly divorcing RFK Jr. once the Curb Your Enthusiasm star was photographed not wearing her wedding ring.

Despite the extent of the affair, Hines and RFK Jr. they have been seen together several times in the past month.

Hines, 59, immediately rushed to her loving husband’s side in Massachusetts on Oct. 12 after her mother, Ethel Kennedy, died.

The New York dinner raises millions of dollars for Catholic charities and has traditionally offered candidates from both parties a chance to exchange light-hearted barbs and show they can get along — or at least pretend — for a night in the final stretch of the elections. .
