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.

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.
