Cheryl Hines recently revealed the status of her relationship with Larry David, her co-star on “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” During an appearance on the “Hot Mics with Bill Bush” podcast, she mentioned that they have not communicated for approximately a year and a half.

Cheryl Hines and Larry David: A Relationship Affected by Politics
Hines expressed affection for Larry David, stating, “I love Larry and I think Larry loves me.” However, the ongoing political climate appears to have strained their friendship. She noted that their last interaction was at the after-party for the premiere of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” Season 12 on January 30, 2024.
Political Differences
- Larry David has been critical of Donald Trump and those who support him.
- Despite Hines’ political shift, David has refrained from directly criticizing her or her husband.
- Hines has faced backlash as she became vocal in support of Kennedy’s MAGA connections.
David previously clarified his stance on Kennedy’s presidential campaign. While Kennedy suggested he felt supported by David, the comedian stated, “Yes love and support, but I’m not ‘supporting’ him.” This indicates the clear division shaped by their differing political views.
Impact on Relationships
Hines’ political alignment is impacting her social circles. Friend and fellow comedian Tig Notaro spoke about distancing herself from Hines citing discomfort with Hines’ endorsement of Kennedy’s campaign. Notaro expressed that she felt stepping back was necessary as Hines was “okaying a particular ride for this country to go on.”
Going Public with Controversial Views
As Kennedy’s campaign progresses, Hines has increasingly adopted controversial views regarding COVID-19 vaccinations. She echoed these sentiments on “The View,” leading to challenging discussions with the co-hosts about her stance.
Continuing the Conversation
Hines attributes the negative attention on her husband to the stigma associated with MAGA. She stated, “Because it’s MAGA, they are furious about it.” This highlights the ongoing conflict between personal relationships and political beliefs.
As the landscape continues to evolve, the future of Hines and David’s friendship remains uncertain, overshadowed by their contrasting political ideologies. Attendances of public events may further shape their relationship moving forward.
