Olivia Nuzzi, the political journalist who had a personal relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. while covering the 2024 campaign, has accused her ex-fiancé of masterminding a blackmail and harassment campaign against her, according to CNN.
Nuzzi’s allegations against Ryan Lizza, himself a star political reporter, were made in a court filing and before a judge in Washington, D.C. this week, the network reported Tuesday.
Lizza denied the allegations in a statement.
“I am saddened that my ex-fiancée would resort to making a series of false accusations against me as a way to divert attention from her own personal and professional failings,” he told the Daily Beast. “I emphatically deny these allegations and I will defend myself against them vigorously and successfully.”
This is a breaking story and will be updated.
