Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s life since he pivoted into politics has been marred by scandals, but the one that remained unaddressed was his alleged affair with a New Yorker journalist. Now RFK Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines are finally responding, calling the entire debacle “low vibrational.” The two have assured anyone interested that they’re completely over it.
RFK Jr. was exposed for having an affair with former New Yorker political reporter Olivia Nuzzi. Both Nuzzi and RFK Jr. were in long-term relationships when Nuzzi covered RFK Jr. as a potential candidate, but that didn’t prevent the two from engaging in an inappropriate romantic relationship which reportedly involved sexting. The publication ended up sending Nuzzi on leave for the lapse in judgment before she eventually left. The two allegedly engaged in a relationship later described as “digital in nature,” and while Nuzzi has repeatedly answered for the kerfuffle, all RFK Jr. said was that they only met once — and Hines never addressed the allegations at all.
