Videos circulating on social media showing President Donald Trump seemingly snubbing actress Cheryl Hines at a UFC event have sparked widespread speculation. The footage, which shows Hines reaching out for a handshake but being ignored by Trump, quickly went viral, with many claiming the president “snubbed” the Curb Your Enthusiasm star and wife of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F Kennedy.
The incident took place on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at the Kaseya Center in Miami, where President Trump attended UFC 314 alongside members of his Cabinet. Upon entering the arena, Trump was seen shaking hands with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. but appeared to overlook Cheryl Hines as she extended her hand. Hines seemed momentarily surprised by the interaction and was later seen briefly speaking with Kai Trump.
