RFK Jr. Faces Scandal Amid Memorial Services

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cheryl Hines appeared at the Al Smith charity dinner, marking their first public event since allegations of Kennedy's sexting affair with journalist Olivia Nuzzi surfaced. The couple also attended the funeral of Kennedy's mother, Ethel Kennedy, displaying unity despite rumors of marital discord. Hines, reportedly considering divorce, showed support by attending the memorial service with Kennedy, where they were seen holding hands. Kennedy, who has denied any sustained relationship with Nuzzi, continues to face fallout from the scandal. Meanwhile, Nuzzi has accused her ex-fiancé Ryan Lizza of blackmail, with Lizza countering by revealing Nuzzi's disparaging private remarks about her relationship with Kennedy. The tension comes as Kennedy mourns his mother's passing and reflects on her impact on his life.
