Chelsea Handler has blasted Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines – claiming she has not been able to live in the $5.9 million Brentwood home she bought from the couple five years ago.
The comedian unloaded on the Health and Human Services secretary during an episode of her “Dear Chelsea” podcast, describing the sprawling 5-bed property as “f—ed up” and branding the saga a “disaster.”
The home had an “illegal” outdoor storage unit and Handler fumed how she didn’t realize the full extent of the problems surrounding the property until inspections were carried out.
“I bought RFK Jr.’s house in Los Angeles five years ago,” Handler told fellow comic Denis Leary.
“I still have not lived in this house, that’s how f–ed up this house was.”
Handler said the purchase was done privately through trusts in October 2021, meaning the identities of both buyer and seller were shielded at the time.
“It was a disaster, and I didn’t know it going in because everything was, you know, under wraps,” she said.
Handler claimed contractors told her “This house is the most toxic environment.”
Contractors reportedly warned that Handler wouldn’t be able to live in the house for two years, alluding to the necessary renovations.
“Now we have to remove his illegal bulls–t from my property and I’m like, ‘how did they not find this upon the first inspection?”’ she said.
Handler said Hines had the “audacity” to leave a message behind.
“Cheryl Hines left me a note saying, ”Let us know if there’s anything we can do for you, Chelsea.” I’m like, ‘yeah, how about a f—ing foundation’” she said.“That’s something you could do for me. Anyway, I’m not angry about it or anything. I’m totally over.”
Three months before the deal went through, Hines and Kennedy bought a home on the same street for $6.6 million.
The Post has contacted RFK Jr for comment.
