Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faced criticism for his unexpected naked appearance while his wife, Cheryl Hines, was showcasing her beauty line on Instagram. During the weekend, Hines, known for her role in “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” was promoting her Hines+Young products when Kennedy decided to step into the shower behind her.
Laughing, she told him, “You can’t take a shower. I’m doing a video. No, no, no, I’m doing a… you’ve gotta give me a second. I’m doing a video for Hines+Young. Honey… 60% off.” While Hines’s head and upper body obscured Kennedy’s nakedness, he could be seen washing his hair and scrubbing his body.

Many viewers deemed Kennedy’s actions as “cringe-worthy,” especially following his nomination by Donald Trump to lead the Health and Human Services Department. One commenter on X remarked, “Cheryl. This is cringe… No one wants to see RFK Jr naked. Oh wait! Besides that journalist he was sexting while he was with you,” referring to Kennedy’s recent affair with Olivia Nuzzi.
Another user expressed disdain, labeling the scene as “repulsive in every [possible] way,” while one more simply stated, “I hate this.” However, some viewers found the moment amusing, with one stating, “They’re a cute couple, and she’s hilarious.”
Another supporter shared, “It’s called having fun… I laughed because it is exactly what my husband would do if I was trying to take a video,” while a third added, “cuteness.” Despite the drama surrounding his relationship with Nuzzi, Kennedy, 70, and Hines, 59, seem to maintain a good rapport.
Nuzzi, a political journalist aged 31, confirmed their relationship in September after Kennedy reportedly boasted about “intimate” photos she sent him. Following the revelation of the affair, Hines was briefly seen without her wedding ring but later discussed overcoming “crazy” times with Kennedy during an interview with Us Weekly in October.
The couple was also photographed holding hands at his mother’s funeral in Washington, DC, on October 16. Having married in 2014, they share children from previous relationships.
