OK, as quick of a recap as I can possibly give: Last month, a bombshell dropped that political journalist Olivia Nuzzi was placed on leave from her job at New York magazine following revelations of a “personal relationship” that allegedly developed between her and once-presidential candidate RFK Jr. If you want a full rundown of the story so far, you can get it all here.

Complicating matters quite a bit is the fact that Cheryl — who many know from her stint as herself on Curb Your Enthusiasm — has been married to RFK Jr. since 2014. Yikes.

“She’s been talking about filing for divorce, but he’s begging her not to file,” the source adds. “But how many times can you forgive a partner that’s dishonest and goes behind your back?”
