Cheryl Hines Considers Divorce from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Amid Alleged Affair and Trump Endorsement

Cheryl Hines may be considering divorce from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. following recent revelations and political strains. According to Page Six, the 59-year-old actress is reportedly disturbed by her husband's virtual affair with Olivia Nuzzi, a 31-year-old reporter currently on leave from New York magazine amid a scandal involving explicit messages exchanged with Kennedy. However, sources reveal Hines is even more troubled by Kennedy’s shift toward the Trump camp, a move that’s deepened their marital rift.

Known for her role in Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hines, a lifelong Democrat, has been vocal about her disapproval of Trump. The couple, who married in 2014, has managed ups and downs in their relationship, but Kennedy’s recent endorsement of the GOP nominee has reportedly shaken her deeply. Speaking to TMZ, Kennedy acknowledged Hines’s discomfort, describing her opposition to his decision as “dominant” in their discussions. He noted she only went along with it out of love and support, not enthusiasm.

An insider told Page Six that while Hines accepted Kennedy’s reputation, she “never signed up to be a member of Trump World.” Renowned Kennedy biographer Jerry Oppenheimer weighed in, suggesting Hines was “blindsided” by both Kennedy's political pivot and his alleged affair with Nuzzi. According to Oppenheimer, Hines is reportedly embarrassed and furious, leading her to consider ending their 10-year marriage.
