Carolyn Bessette and JFK Jr.: New Book Uncovers the Truth About Their Marriage Before Their Deaths


A new book uncovers the truth about Carolyn Bessette and JFK Jr.’s marriage, and the author exclusively tells Closer there was a ‘misconception’ about Carolyn.

Beller’s new book seeks to show a different side of Carolyn, who since her death with John and her sister Lauren in a plane crash 25 years ago, has often been depicted in a negative light. John had dated celebrities, including Madonna, Sarah Jessica Parker and Daryl Hannah, but Carolyn’s poise, intelligence and warmth appealed to him. Other books have blamed Carolyn for being late to the airfield the night John’s plane crashed in heavy fog in July 1999, killing everyone onboard — but Beller says this isn’t true.
