In fact, according to the New York Post, RFK Jr. allegedly once had more than 40 “lovers” on his phone, including his current wife Hines.

In a 2014 resurfaced by the same outlet, he allegedly had the contact details of dozens of women listed alphabetically. What’s more, all the names were apparently listed under the letter “G,” which his second wife, the late Mary Kathleen Richardson, thought was “goomar,” Italian slang for mistress.

So why are RFJ Jr.’s infidelities back in the spotlight? Kennedy is rumored to have had an affair with political journalist Nuzzi.

This was revealed earlier this week New York MagazineOfficial “Note to Our Readers.” The statement reads: “Recently, our Washington correspondent Olivia Nuzzi admitted to the magazine’s editors that she had entered into a personal relationship with a former 2024 campaign subject while covering the campaign, which violates the magazine’s standards on conflicts of interest and disclosures. Had the magazine known about the relationship, it would not have continued to cover the presidential campaign.” Nuzzi “is currently on leave from the magazine while the magazine conducts a more thorough external review.”

Nuzzi later clarified what happened, claiming it “never got physical,” but their emotional affair began in December 2023, just after her November profile on the then-presidential candidate was published, according to The Washington Post.

“I deeply regret not doing so immediately and apologize to those I let down, especially my colleagues in New York,” Nuzzi said in a statement to CNN.

How did RFK Jr. react? Well, his representatives said The Washington Post“Mr. Kennedy met Olivia Nuzzi only once in her life, at whose request she gave an interview that was later lampooned.”

A lot of details are still emerging and everyone is wondering what the hell is going on.
