Kennedy Jr., the independent candidate who suspended his campaign last month and endorsed former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>In its statement, New York Magazine did not name Kennedy, and a spokeswoman for the outlet did not respond to an ABC News request to confirm that he is in fact the subject in question.<\/p>\n<p>But in statements, neither Nuzzi nor a Kennedy representative denied Status&#8217; reporting that Kennedy was involved.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Earlier this year, the nature of some communication between myself and a former reporting subject turned personal,&#8221; Nuzzi said in a statement. &#8220;During that time, I did not directly report on the subject nor use them as a source. The relationship was never physical but should have been disclosed to prevent the appearance of a conflict. I deeply regret not doing so immediately and apologize to those I&#8217;ve disappointed, especially my colleagues at New York.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Stefanie Spear, a Kennedy spokeswoman, told ABC News in a statement, &#8220;Mr. Kennedy only met Olivia Nuzzi once in his life for an interview she requested, which yielded a hit piece.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Spear did not respond to a follow-up question about whether Kennedy denies the allegation of a romantic relationship.<\/p>\n<p>A profile by Nuzzi of Kennedy, in which she hiked with the candidate near his southern California home, published in November.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Kennedy had recently dropped his Democratic presidential bid to run as an independent and was polling promisingly in swing states.<\/p>\n<p>But a cash shortage and a wave of unflattering headlines blunted his campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy is married to the actress Cheryl Hines, who has not commented publicly on the alleged relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Nuzzi\u2019s ex-fianc\u00e9e, Ryan Lizza, Politico\u2019s Chief Washington Correspondent, wrote in the Friday\u2019s \u201cPlaybook\u201d newsletter, \u201cBecause of my connection to this story through my ex-fiancee, my editors and I have agreed that I won\u2019t be involved in any coverage of Kennedy in Playbook or elsewhere at POLITICO.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2024, ABC Audio.
