Kennedy Cape Cod Romance: JFK Jr. and Carolyn’s Hyannis Port Hideaway

A Rolling Stone profile of JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette’s time on Cape Cod shows Hyannis Port as their quiet home base, where Carolyn loved visiting the Kennedy Compound, hosted dinners with New York friends, and considered the Cape a calmer alternative to Palm Beach; John and Carolyn discussed future plans, including expanding the Hyannis Port home, with John proposing on Martha’s Vineyard. The piece also notes differences from the Love Story portrayal and ends with the couple’s tragic 1999 plane crash.
