| Message | Did you know... Documented facts: Jackie Ari & Jack: The Tragic Love Triangle by January Jones
Jackie Kennedy’s private papers are sealed until 2044 with 80 years worth of secrets.
Aristotle Onassis was Jackie’s guest in The White House during the JFK funeral. He was the only non-family member invited to stay there during the funeral.
Prior to the assassination on October 1, 1963, Jackie was Ari’s guest on his ship, the Christina, going against JFK’s wishes. Ari gave her over $50,000 in jewels as a farewell gift when she returned to Washington and agreed to go to Dallas.
Prior to the assassination, JFK had forbidden Onassis to enter the country until after the 1964 election. He called Onassis a “pirate” publicly and worse privately.
Jackie was not independently wealthy. All the money was tied up in Kennedy trust funds. JFK left her only $25,000 in cash plus interest only from one trust fund to be terminated upon her remarriage.
JFK and Jackie had a very popular, political marriage. His father felt that he needed a wife and Jackie’s family felt she needed to marry into money. They had separate lives and separate bedrooms.
Jackie had electro-shock therapy early in their marriage due to depression. |
