Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. named Silicon Valley lawyer Nicole Shanahan as his running mate on Tuesday. Kennedy made the announcement at a campaign event Tuesday in Oakland, California.
Shanahan, 38, is a wealthy tech attorney who was previously married to Google co-founder Sergey Brin. The couple split in 2022 following allegations she had an affair with Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk — which she vehemently denies.
Despite having little political experience, Shanahan has previously donated large amounts of money to Democratic campaigns, including Joe Biden in 2020, according to The New York Times. She also helped pay for a pro-Kennedy Super Bowl political ad that drew some criticism from members of his family who have tried to distance themselves from his presidential campaign.
