Yes, he was sighed around town. He kind of had a large head. Too bad it took him several tries to pass the bar exam.

By the time she finally arrived, it was dark already. They should have just skipped the dinner and waited until the next day to fly to the wedding but he thought they could still arrive in time for dinner even though he had not yet achieved the level of flying by instrument panel. There is no horizon in the darkness. They probably had no idea that they were heading into the water.
Both parties were daft. This is why his mother prohibited him from pursuing flying small aircrafts while she was alive. She understood something about his lack of judgement.

NP. They fought a lot and his hubris resulted in her death and sibling's death.
Srsly. Her poor parents lost two daughters in a plane crash that should never have happened. He had no business flying a tiny plane in bad weather.
No one tells a Kennedy "no"

Not believing this for one second. This does not sound like something she would do AT ALL.
She was apparently late to her own wedding. Very late.
She apparently had trouble getting her dress on (no fastenings) and it was very stressful. Talk about pressure.
2 hours late due to fastenings?

(DP) I’m old enough to remember their relationship and death due to a People magazine subscription and being very invested as a teenager. Ha.
The rumor that she caused them to start out late due to her nails was well known. The public back then perceived her as very difficult and demanding. Obviously I have no idea if it is true. Just saying, PP didn’t make it up, it’s what the public was told via gossip mags.
It is 2026 and you're basing this on People magazine's reporting from 1999. FML.
Do, but that is more likely to be accurate. Now both John and Carolyn are being deified. Journalism was actually much better then.
Seriously? All the Kennedys had to do was have someone place a call blaming Carolyn and People would publish it. Then and now, it's little more than a PR mouthpiece.
