Carolyn Bessette
Carolyn Bessette probably assumed she had landed a huge prize when “America’s Prince,” JFK Jr., proposed.
But sadly, it didn’t take long for her and the people in her life to realize that JFK Jr. was more like a booby trap. They even tried to warn Carolyn.
Her mother, Ann, was so worried that she tried to stop the wedding during the rehearsal dinner. Why all the hub-ub?
Apparently, JFK Jr. had treated Carolyn badly before they tied the knot, and marriage didn’t improve their relationship. JFK Jr. was cruel when the press attention became too much for Carolyn.
Like his uncles and father, one woman was never enough for him. He cheated on his wife throughout their entire relationship, even having a fling with an ex-girlfriend barely 48 hours before his fatal plane crash.
After the collision, Ted Kennedy leaped into action, having John F. Kennedy Jr’s remains cremated after arranging a quick autopsy and sealing the medical examiner’s report.
Assumably, this was done to protect JFK Jr.’s public image should he have flown intoxicated.
In the following years, some people blamed Carolyn for his crash, claiming JFK Jr. wouldn’t have been flying at night if she hadn’t arrived late.
This is what experts call the “Kennedy machine,” a network of advisers, family members, and media backscratchers who protect the image of the Kennedy men whenever one is involved in dishonor.
They seem to deflect blame by slandering the name of any woman involved with them.
