Cheryl Hines on dating a Kennedy: Be genuine

Actress Cheryl Hines, who joined America's version of the royal family last summer when she married Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is offering Miley Cyrus a little bit of advice on dating a member of the Kennedy clan. Hines, known for her role as Larry David's wife on HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm," first met Cyrus when she made an appearance on "Hannah Montana" in 2009. This week, Hines talked to the UK's Closer Magazine about the young singer's budding romance with Patrick Schwarzenegger, son of Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger. (Cyrus and young Schwarzenegger spent last weekend with his parents in Sun Valley, Idaho.) Hines's advice for Cyrus? "Just have a good time and be genuine." Judging from the pictures posted on Cyrus's Instagram, all is well between her and the Terminator's son. The 22-year-old singer recently posted a picture of herself, captioned "Have the best BF eva," clad in a pizza-themed onesie and cuddling a similarly themed blanket (with different toppings). No word on whether Cyrus and Taylor Swift, who dated Hines's stepson Conor Kennedy in 2012, have traded tips.
