RFK Jr.‘s alleged FaceTime lover Olivia Nuzzi has broken cover at a Hollywood party attended by a high-profile director amid speculation she could write a tell-all about her explosive private life.

The 31-year-old New York Magazine reporter had not been seen since for weeks amid allegations that she became the 70-year-old thrice-married nepo-baby’s “digital” lover, leading to her fiance, Politico reporter Ryan Lizza, to dump her.

But she skipped Washington D.C. where she is involved in a bitter legal battle with Lizza for a high-glamor dinner in Los Angeles last Thursday with the director Ava DuVernay.

Nuzzi attended the “Work Friends” dinner in L.A., hosted by the fashion brand Argent. DuVernay, actress Kate Mara and other female journalists also attended the event, which was branded by Argent as featuring “trailblazing women” who “challenge the status quo.”

Nuzzi was previously featured in Argent’s 2019 campaign. Nuzzi posed with Laura Brown, the former editor-in-chief of InStyle, in an Instagram photo posted by Brown.

Nuzzi was recently put on leave by New York Magazine for allegedly sexting Kennedy. Nuzzi, a political journalist, profiled him last year for the magazine. Since her relationship with Kennedy was revealed in September, Nuzzi has publicly kept a low profile.

Kennedy has denied the affair, though court documents between Nuzzi and Lizza, claim that Kennedy told Nuzzi he wants to “control” and “impregnate” her. Nuzzi filed for a no-contact order against Lizza, and alleged that he tried to blackmail her. Lizza has denied these claims.

RFK Jr. and his wife of 10 years, Cheryl Hines, were spotted holding hands at Kennedy’s mother’s funeral earlier this week and at the Al Smith dinner on Thursday night.
