Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. disclosed receiving more than $250,000 in gifts from a prominent donor, including pricey flights to Fiji and Greece and access to a vacation home in Washington, D.C., according to The Wall Street Journal.
The gifts came from Gavin de Becker, a security consultant who provided protective services to Kennedy and was a big donor to his 2024 presidential campaign, the Journal reported on Friday.
Kennedy disclosed the gifts, which he received in 2025, in an annual financial ethics disclosure that was updated this week. The Journal then got a copy through a records request.
Among them were nearly $97,000 in round-trip flights to Fiji, where de Becker owns property, and almost $45,000 in a single round-trip to and from Greece. Kennedy also disclosed use of de Becker’s vacation home in Washington, D.C.
The filing also detailed several other gifts the HHS secretary received, including a private flight to Aspen, Colorado, worth around $900 from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and WWE box seats provided by Education Secretary Linda McMahon.
He additionally reported $4 million in book advances, including two $2 million checks from Skyhorse Publishing for Unsettled Science and A Defense for Israel. He’s expecting another advance of less than $15,000 for an upcoming book, America’s Path Back to Moral Leadership.
Kennedy disclosed owning between $1 million and $5 million in bitcoin, a vacation property valued in the same range, and a Los Angeles home worth between $5 million and $25 million.
He listed three mortgages and between $125,000 and $265,000 in credit-card debt — down from more than $600,000 reported in his filing last year.
A spokeswoman for the HHS secretary told the Journal that the health secretary follows federal ethics requirements and has consulted HHS ethics officials.
De Becker, though, did not immediately respond to the newspaper’s requests for comment.
