RFK Jr. D.C. Home Purchase Backfires as Wife Cheryl Hines Stays Put in Hollywood
Sources claim **Robert F. Kennedy Jr.** feels “taken for a ride” after buying a $4.34 million Georgetown residence for his wife, **Cheryl Hines**, who reportedly has no intention of relocating.
The lavish 19th-century Georgetown townhouse, purchased last April, was intended to bridge marital divides and establish the couple as a formidable Washington D.C. power duo. However, **Hines**, an actress known for “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” appears committed to her Hollywood career.
Marital Strain Amidst Scandal
Sources indicate that following allegations of a “sexting” relationship with former New York Magazine writer **Olivia Nuzzi**, **Hines** was “in a state of shock” and contemplated divorce. During this tumultuous period, she was observed in Milan without her wedding and engagement rings.
“Bobby swore to Cheryl there would be no more playing around with other women, and he restored Cheryl’s trust in him to keep it in his pants.”

After **Kennedy** accepted a role in the Trump administration, **Hines** reportedly issued an ultimatum, demanding an immediate move to D.C. to help him manage what he described in private diaries as his “lust demons.” **Kennedy** allegedly assured **Hines** of his fidelity.
D.C. Life Not Appealing to Hines
Despite the assurances, **Hines** reportedly views Washington D.C. as a “deadbeat town” and remains unconvinced about **Kennedy**’s involvement with the right-wing Republican administration. Her current focus appears to be on her film projects, including the short film “Prowl.”
Reports indicate that **Hines** has since resumed wearing her wedding band, suggesting a period of reconciliation. However, her lack of enthusiasm for a move to the capital casts a shadow over **Kennedy**’s plans for their shared future.
The median home price in Washington D.C. has reached approximately $630,000, according to Redfin, underscoring the significant investment **Kennedy** made in the Georgetown property (Redfin, 2024).
