RFK Jr’s wife Cheryl Hines felt the wrath of social media after being brutally snubbed by president Donald Trump at UFC 314.
Hines stood alongside her husband – Trump’s secretary of health – as the president arrived at Kaseya Center in Miami and made his way to his seat.
Amid the chaos of his entrance, Trump went along a line of big names, meeting and greeting them – but while RFK himself got a hug, Hines was completely ignored.
The painfully awkward moment was caught on ESPN’s live TV coverage, with the famous actress appearing immediately embarrassed as she tried to brush off the incident.
She held her hand out to say hello to the president, only for him to turn away and leave her hand hanging in the air.
Trump did greet the likes of Dave Portnoy and others on his way to the UFC cage, but there was no love for Hines, who has been married to RFK since 2014.
Hines is RFK Jr’s third wife, after Emily Black and the late Mary Richardson, they began dating in 2012, and now have houses in LA, Cape Cod and Washington DC.
Cheryl Hines held her hand out to be shaken by president Donald Trump at UFC 314
She was completely snubbed by the president, who turned and walked away immediately
They were first introduced by Larry David, Hines’ co-star on Curb Your Enthusiasm, the role for which she is most famous.
On social media, viewers were quick to notice the snub and one immediately made the comparison everyone was thinking: ‘Cheryl Hines getting blown off for a handshake by President Trump is just missing the Curb theme music.’
Another wrote: ‘Lmfao trump ghosted Cheryl Hines so hard,’ while a third added: ‘Was that intentional?! Does anyone know why?’
Trump was among the superstar names sitting cageside at UFC 314 in Miami, where MAGA fanatic Michael Chandler is fighting England’s Paddy Pimblett.
On his visit to Miami, Trump was joined by his granddaughter Kai, Elon Musk, and an entourage of MAGA high-flyers.
The president boarded Air Force One in Palm Beach to make the short trip to Miami, where he then made a high-profile entrance to the arena, much to the delight of the crowd.
As he walked in, he was flanked by three of his grandchildren: Kai, 17, Donald J. Trump III, 16, and Tristan, 13.
UFC president Dana White was also alongside the president, who greeted Shaquille O’Neal and Joe Rogan en route to his seat before the main event got underway.
Elon Musk was also present, carrying his son X Æ A-12 – who was sporting ear protectors – on his shoulders.
FBI Director Kash Patel and Texas senator Ted Cruz also joined Trump. Meanwhile, while Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is reportedly expected to celebrate her birthday with the group.
