Cuomo\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>Abusive bullying helped end the marriage between Cuomo, now 63, and Kennedy, the seventh child of former Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, author Michael Shnayerson said. They were married from 1990 to 2005, and have three daughters.<\/p>\n<p>The accusations fit with a pattern of brutal bullying and demeaning treatment of women raised in recent weeks that have left Cuomo facing widespread calls to resign, and possible impeachment if he does not.<\/p>\n<p>Shnayerson wrote that Kennedy wanted out of the marriage by 2001, around the time Cuomo\u2019s role as Secretary for Housing and Urban Development under President Bill Clinton was winding down. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHer problems with her husband were strictly personal,\u201d <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2021\/03\/andrew-cuomos-biographer-on-the-governors-brutish-history\">Shnayerson wrote in Vanity Fair<\/a>. Part of her complaints revolved around not doing things like visiting their daughters\u2019 schools and reading a book on parenting, but there were also harsher accusations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKerry was done being ridiculed and belittled,\u201d Shnayerson recounts a source close to the couple telling him. \u201cEither Andrew would work on the marriage or he wouldn\u2019t, and the two would divorce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cuomo mounted an unsuccessful bid for governor in 2002, but didn\u2019t make it past the state convention. Kennedy demanded a divorce as soon as he dropped out of the race.<\/p>\n<p>Shnayerson wrote that for six months, Cuomo refused to leave their house or respond to her lawyers. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn more than one night during that period, Kerry slept in a locked bathroom, according to a source close to the family, who recounted instances of physical abuse. \u2018I\u2019ve been a human rights activist, and for women who have abusive husbands,\u2019 Kerry told a friend, \u2018and here I am enduring this abuse\u2019,\u201d Schnayerson recalled.<\/p>\n<p>The bullying behavior continued in multiple ways, like making it difficult to plan holidays for their daughters, he wrote, quoting a source saying,  \u201cThere\u2019s a million ways for a single parent to make the other parent\u2019s life miserable, and he played that <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy could not im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely be reached by The Post for comment.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesman for the governor told Vanity Fair: \u201cThe divorce was over 15 years ago and was tabloid fodder for weeks with all sorts of untrue rumors circulating. Time has proven them all false. Andrew is a great father, and his daughters will be the first to say that Kerry and Andrew have been great co-parents \u2014 and time showed those who spread the rumors\u200e were actually the problem.\u200b\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
