An insider has revealed where Robert F. Kennedy Jr. disappeared to after a man collapsed during one of Trump's speeches this week.

On Thursday (November 6), a press conference was held in The White House, alongside drug manufacturers, to expand coverage and reduce prices of obesity medications.

Two manufacturers, Eli Lily and Novo Nordisk announced that a deal had been struck with the president to slash the prices of their weight-loss drugs for the government’s Medicare and Medicaid programs.

During the press conference, one man standing at the front, could be seen stumbling, as if he was about to faint.

The man was immediately helped and laid on the floor by those around him, including Dr Mehmet Oz.

However, it was RFK Jr.'s reaction that had people talking, with many wondering where he dashed off to following the incident.

One wrote on X: "LOL watch RFK Jr. skedaddle."

While another said: "RFK legged it."

And a third added: "Look how fast RFK Jr. takes off."

However, following the speculation, The White House stepped in to defend RFK Jr., explaining that he took off to seek medical assistance.

Meanwhile, a source who was reportedly at the conference told PEOPLE that there were three medics surrounding the man during the incident, and that Kennedy went to find a chair for him to sit on.

He reportedly 'went into the other room and got a chair because when [the man] first started falling, he thought maybe he just needed to sit.'

The insider added: "He went back and got a wet towel and came over and [the man] was on the floor.

"When they were first propping him up, Kennedy ran in the other room and got a chair for him."

People were also quick to discuss Donald Trump’s reaction to the whole incident.

While people rushed in to help the fallen man and Karoline Leavitt, the White House Press Secretary, attempted to usher out the press, Trump didn't appear to move or saying anything.

One photo also captured a brief moment where Trump simply faced the audience, looking forward, while first aid was administered.

In a statement following the incident, Leavitt made it clear that the man was later okay.

She said: “During the Most Favored Nations Oval Office Announcement, a representative with one of the companies fainted. The White House Medical Unit quickly jumped into action, and the gentleman is okay. The Press Conference will resume shortly.”
