Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Moves to D.C. Amid Marriage Strains with Cheryl Hines

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has reportedly agreed to move to Washington, D.C., following pressure from his wife, actress Cheryl Hines, to help salvage their strained marriage. The couple recently bought a $4.34 million Georgetown townhouse—a 4,876-square-foot historic row home featuring a luxurious master suite, fireplaces, and modern amenities, just minutes from the White House.

The decision follows controversy over Kennedy’s alleged communications with journalist Olivia Nuzzi, which sources claim added tension to their relationship. Hines reportedly demanded the move, seeking both a fresh start and more oversight in their marriage. “She was very bossy about it,” one insider told MEAWW News, adding that Kennedy left the logistics to her.

The relocation also carries symbolic weight. Georgetown, once home to Jacqueline Kennedy, aligns with the family’s legacy—a factor Hines is said to appreciate. Despite long-standing rumors of Kennedy’s infidelity, this move may be an attempt to rebuild trust.

Observers are divided on whether geography alone can heal their marriage. While the new home offers hope for reconnection, others see it as a temporary fix amid ongoing personal and public pressures.

Only time will tell if this move truly marks a turning point in their high-profile relationship.
