Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wore his wedding ring in public for the first time since his “sexting” scandal. His wife, Cheryl Hines, did not wear hers on their Italian vacation.
RFK Jr. wore his ring onstage at an event supporting former President Trump at the Robert on Saturday night at the Bob Price Recreation Center in Las Vegas.
He sat with former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard at the Reclaim America Tour event.
The 70-year-old politician told the crowd that the Democratic Party he grew up with “no longer exists.” He also spoke about what “Make America Great Again” means.
RFK Jr. was allegedly involved in a “sexting” affair with New York magazine political reporter Olivia Nuzzi, 31. She is accused of sending him “demure” nudes.
Kennedy chose to campaign for Trump in Vegas on his wife’s birthday. The day before, she was photographed without her wedding ring.
Hines went to Italy for Milan Fashion Week and spent her 59th birthday Saturday with her and RFK Jr.’s daughter.
The actress was seen smiling on Friday after attending a Gucci afterparty but wasn’t wearing her wedding ring.
She wore a dainty gold band on her left finger instead of the thick silver band she’d worn for the past decade.
The Emmy-nominated actress hasn’t commented on the alleged affair. A source told Page Six on Friday that the star is likely upset and would be “shocked if Cheryl stays” in a marriage with RFK Jr. Page Six reached out to Hines’ rep for comment.
Nuzzi wrote a profile on Kennedy in November 2023. After that, the two started dating, according to STATUS News, which cited sources.
A Kennedy spokesperson told the Post he’d only met Nuzzi once.
A source close to Kennedy told the Post that Nuzzi became obsessed with RFK Jr. after that meeting and pursued him, even though he was blocking her.
An insider told The Post that both parties stopped texting due to the “high risk.”
The journalist was put on leave so New York magazine could do a third-party review. The magazine said this relationship violated standards around conflicts of interest and disclosures.
