Love Story: Kennedy's True Tale Amidst Fiction

0:00On March 26th, Hulu and FX's new series Love Story is reigniting worldwide interest in John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bassett's romance. The Ryan Murphy production covers their quick courtship, marriage, and the tragic 1999 playing crash that took their lives. Every episode starts with a note that some events and people are dramatized for the story. The show nails a few real details, like the couple's favorite New York spots such as Indoshine, the Odeon, Bubbies, and others where they dined often. It also captures the paparazzi swarm after their honeymoon, which kept Carolyn mostly homebound and a helicopter buzzing their secret Georgia island, wetting their guests stodged in jeeps. Friends and family are pushing back hard on the fiction. Close pal Sasha Sharmaif says the creators never knew the couple and invented too much. Darryl Hannah slammed her role as a clingy ex who did drugs and disrespected Kennedy heirlooms, calling it all untrue in a public essay. Big distortions include a made up first date at an Indian restaurant, fights between Carolyn and John's sister Caroline over wedding plans, and Carolyn quitting Calvin Klein because of media distraction.
