Kennedy, the son of Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of former President Kennedy, is married to actress Cheryl Hines and has six children from two previous marriages.
Kennedy ran for the White House as a Democrat, but switched to running as an independent in October.
He has struggled to make much of an impact in the 2024 election, although one in five registered voters in a December poll said they were prepared to support a third-party candidate.
Kennedy supports several populist positions that align with former President Trump and some progressives in the Democratic Party.
Recent polls suggest his position in the race could improve Trump’s chances of being re-elected. A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll released last month found Trump leading Biden by 7 points in a head-to-head contest, 48% to 41%, respectively.
