Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 'begging' Cheryl Hines not to divorce him, report says

MAGA surrogate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is “begging” actor Cheryl Hines not to dump him after his alleged virtual affair with political reporter Olivia Nuzzi came to light.

The former presidential candidate and his wife of 10 years agreed to disagree when Kennedy ended his campaign and threw his support behind Republican nominee Donald Trump in August. But according to People, Hines is ready to end that marriage in the aftermath of her 70-year-old spouse’s online dalliance with the 31-year-old New York magazine scribe, whose own engagement was subsequently aborted.

“She’s been talking about filing for divorce, but he’s begging her not to file,” a source close to Hines reportedly told People.

Supportive friends of the 59-year-old “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star call Kennedy’s conduct “ridiculous behavior from a grown, married man.”

 

Hines has been quiet about the status of her marriage, though reports of her being seen in Spain and California without her wedding ring have fueled speculation the pair is on the outs. In Milan, Hines — celebrating her recent birthday — was also without her husband.

Nuzzi has “acknowledged” having an inappropriate relationship with Kennedy, but claims it was never physical. His camp said the political scion, whose father was assassinated while running for president in 1968, met Nuzzi one time and it resulted in a New York magazine “hit piece.”

Hines is known to “Curb Your Enthusiasm” fans as the long-suffering wife of central character Larry David, whom she dumped at the end of the HBO comedy’s seventh season.
