Disgraced ex-New York Magazine reporter Olivia Nuzzi claims Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would often try to soothe her concern over an apparent dead worm found in his brain — telling her during their racy sexting affair: “Baby, don’t worry.”

The 32-year-old political reporter detailed the bizarre exchange in her forthcoming memoir about her scandalous tryst with the Kennedy scion, according to an excerpt obtained by Vanity Fair.

Reports surfaced last year that Kennedy had previously said a worm had eaten part of his brain and then later died inside his head.

“I loved his brain. I hated the idea of an intruder therein,” Nuzzi wrote.

“He made me laugh, but I winced when he joked about the worm. ‘Baby, don’t worry,’ he said. ‘It’s not a worm.'”

The worm ordeal first emerged when the New York Times published a report during Kennedy’s failed presidential campaign that detailed some of the past health issues he had claimed he suffered decades earlier.

Kennedy testified in his 2012 divorce proceedings that one of his doctors believed a shadow on his brain scans was likely a dead worm in his head.

“A doctor he trusted had reviewed the scans of his brain obtained by The New York Times, he said, and concluded that the shadowy figure was likely not a parasite at all. He sighed,” Nuzzi wrote.

“It was too late to interfere with what had already vaulted from the sphere of meme to the sphere of screwy legend, but at least I did not have to worry about the worm that was not a worm in his brain.”

The so-called worm revelation immediately went viral went it first surfaced.

Nuzzi acknowledged that many thought Kennedy, who is now President Trump’s health secretary, was just a “madman.”

“He was not quite mad the way they thought, but I loved the private ways that he was mad. I loved that he was insatiable in all ways, as if he would swallow up the whole world just to know it better if he could,” she wrote.

What we know about Olivia Nuzzi's relationship with RFK Jr.

• New York magazine’s star political correspondent Olivia Nuzzi was placed on leave over an alleged ‘sexting’ relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
• The reporter admitted to a non-physical “personal relationship” with Kennedy scion.
• Nuzzi, 31, penned a profile on Kennedy, 70, that was published in November 2023, and sometime after that, the two reportedly began their alleged fling.
• Nuzzi’s fiancé, Politico correspondent Ryan Lizza, announced the couple had ended their engagement on Friday.

Nuzzi’s tell-all — “American Canto” — offers new details on the emotionally-charged, never-physical romance that kicked off after she wrote an article about him in late 2023.

The reporter, whose career imploded when news of their affair was made public, offered up odd descriptions of the now-MAHA leader as she detailed some of the exchanges.

“Like all men but more so, he was a hunter. In a literal sense, he used not a bullet but a bird. It was not about a chase but about a puzzle of logic and skill that amounted to a test of his self-mastery. He was the mouse and the architect of his maze. The giver of his own pleasure and torment,” she wrote.

“He desired. He desired desiring. He desired being desired. He desired desire itself. I understood this just as I came to understand the range of his kinks and complexes and how they fit within what I thought I understood of his soul.”
