Actress Cheryl Hines won't be at every RFK Jr. political event, says she has her 'own career'

Cheryl Hines opened up about her husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s presidential run and how it has impacted her career in Hollywood.

The 57-year-old actress shared her thoughts on Kennedy's bid for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination in her first interview since the 69-year-old environmental lawyer announced his candidacy in April.

Kennedy has come under fire for his vaccine stance and controversial statements that he made before and after launching his campaign.

In Hines' interview with the New York Times, she explained her approach to her role in her spouse's campaign while in a separate interview with the outlet, Kennedy revealed that he proposed an idea to Hines: announcing that the couple had split to separate his wife from his controversies. "I support Bobby and I want to be there for him, and I want him to feel loved and supported by me," Hines told the New York Times. "And at the same time, I don’t feel the need to go to every political event, because I do have my own career." "I think ultimately if I get elected, Cheryl will have played a huge role in that," Kennedy told the outlet. "She’s an enormous asset to me, and I don’t think we’ve really unveiled her in her true power yet."  He continued, "She has a gift that she’s kind of mesmerizing when she’s on TV and she’s talking, because she’s so spontaneous and she has this what I would call a quick, a fast-twitch reflex when it comes to conversation." In January, Kennedy, who is a longtime anti-vaccine activist, sparked controversy when he gave a speech in which he drew comparisons between Nazi Germany and the U.S.
