This week, we’re diving into the complicated and tragic relationship that captivated the world. We trace how JFK Jr., a political heir turned media darling, met Carolyn, the cool, private Calvin Klein publicist who never wanted the spotlight she inherited. Their romance moved quickly, their wedding was secretive, and their marriage — as we explore — was far more strained than the public imagined. We get into the pressures: the paparazzi, the rumours of infidelity, and the growing distance between them. And then, of course, the night that changed everything: the 1999 plane crash that killed them both, and stunned the world. Plus, we break down the renewed fascination with the couple, from fashion TikTok’s obsession to the controversy surrounding Ryan Murphy’s latest TV portrayal, and why the Kennedy family isn’t thrilled.
