16 Sep
Summary
- New cast members questioned Carole about Carolyn Bessette Kennedy's personality.
- Carole described Carolyn as a fun, supportive 'girl's girl'.
- Carole disagreed with the 'Carolyn Bessette Summer' trend and Kennedy family 'curse' discussion.
Carole Radziwill's reappearance on The Real Housewives of New York City has ignited a strong interest among her new co-stars, particularly concerning the late Carolyn Bessette Kennedy. During a group brunch, cast members Daisy Toye and Jessel Taank directly questioned Carole about Carolyn's character and whether she would have "vibed" with them.
Carole, who was married to John F. Kennedy Jr.'s late cousin, described Carolyn as "very fun" and a genuine "girl's girl." However, she admitted to finding the FX drama "Love Story," inspired by Carolyn and JFK Jr.'s relationship, too intense to watch.
The conversation grew more pointed when Jessel inquired about the "Carolyn Bessette Summer" trend, which Carole strongly opposed. Jessel also raised the sensitive topic of the Kennedy family's perceived "curse," a question that deeply unsettled Carole.
Later, Jessel attempted to clarify her "bitch" comment on a radio show, explaining it stemmed from a fashion-centric curiosity about Carolyn's demeanor. The intense exchanges highlighted a cultural and empathetic divide among the housewives.
