It appears that the drama known as “Nuzzigate” has receded into the past.
According to Page Six, Olivia Nuzzi has moved forward in her life, now involved with a new partner following her online entanglement with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which led to her departure from New York magazine in 2024.
Meanwhile, it seems that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife, Cheryl Hines, are back on stable ground. The couple has been spotted displaying affection reminiscent of a young couple in love, even when away from the public eye.
A source from Belgrade observed, “They were holding hands and exchanging kisses during their tour.”
This insider added, “They showed a lot of affection towards each other. Robert had his arm around Cheryl and at one point kissed her. Despite his past sexting scandals, they were acting like a pair of love-struck teenagers.”
Apparently the pair were checking out a “Game of Thrones” exhibit.
We previously reported that, 18 months after the scandal broke, Nuzzi is dating Vice co-founder Shane Smith.
The Status newsletter reported that Smith and Nuzzi, who also left her role at Vanity Fair in the wake of the RFK Jr. debacle, had been spotted together, raising speculation that Nuzzi was being considered for a job at Vice.
But Page Six discovered that the pair had started dating back in April.
The “Curb Your Enthusiasm” actress has publicly dismissed reports about Nuzzi’s relationship with her husband, sniffing, “You have to consider the source,” when asked about the alleged affair.
Page Six has reported that Nuzzi and the politician, who was running for president at the time, had an intense relationship by phone that included FaceTime sex and exchanging declarations of love.
Kennedy, who is now the Secretary for Health and Human Services, has claimed they only met once for an interview.
