Nuzzi was suspended from New York Magazine after her alleged relationship with Kennedy was exposed.

She alleged this behavior by her ex, Politico’s chief Washington correspondent, began following their split – and while she was secretly romancing Kennedy, 70, CNN reported.

Nuzzi admitted to her bosses at New York Magazine she “had engaged in a personal relationship with a former subject relevant to the 2024 campaign while she was reporting on the campaign”, and an insider told CNN this “relationship” was with the former 2024 Independent candidate.

However, a spokesperson for Kennedy – who has been married to actress Cheryl Hines since 2014 – denied having an affair with the reporter and told the outlet he “only met Olivia Nuzzi once in his life for an interview she requested, which yielded a hit piece.”

The reporter wrote an article about RFK Jr. during his campaign and was put on administrative leave last month so New York Magazine could conduct a “third-party review” into the potential conflict of interest.

In court this week, Nuzzi claimed Lizza tipped off her employer about what she referred to as “the matter”, though Kennedy was not mentioned in her complaint by name.

She said Lizza began harassing her in July in an effort to lure her back into a relationship with him, and claimed he lashed out when she was resistant. Nuzzi alleged he then stole and hacked into her personal electronic devices before leaking information to the press, some of which she suggested was “doctored”.
