It's April 22, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment in Celebrity News. Today your AI-powered entertainment report. Maria Shriver and her brother Tim just dropped their late dad Sergeant Shriver's memoir. We called it a war, packed with wisdom on handling family, clashes, especially over politics. As kids of Sergeant and Eunice Kennedy Shriver, their first cousins to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the book. Kids home amid real family tensions. Sergeant, who passed a 95 back in 2011, always pushed for unity at the table, no matter faith, politics or background. The siblings say he taught them to hold strong views without demonizing folks on the other side, aiming to build bridges instead of walls. Even with that foundation, the Shriver's, along with cousins like Caroline Kennedy and Jack Schlossberg, have called out Robert F. Kennedy Jr. publicly over his takes on altism, vaccines, and past addiction struggles. Tim admits it's tough treating family with dignity right at the dinner table, but they're

grinding through it like any American household. The family rift lingers despite the efforts. Just last December, tragedy struck when Caroline's daughter Tatiana Schlossberg died at 35, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told People He, had it been in touch lately and skipped the funeral. Her dad's words remind us that, mobilizing differences beats demonizing them every time. A blueprint worth carrying into our own family battles.
