New York Magazine has placed its Washington correspondent, Olivia Nuzzi, 31, on leave after discovering her romantic relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., 70. The relationship, which allegedly began after Nuzzi wrote a profile on Kennedy in November 2023, has prompted the magazine to conduct a thorough third-party review. The magazine expressed regret over the violation of readers' trust and indicated that Nuzzi would not have continued to cover the presidential campaign had the relationship been known earlier. Kennedy, a prominent figure in the 2024 presidential campaign, is married to actress Cheryl Hines.
