“John F. Kennedy, Jr. was a guest at our inn in March 1991. Imagine my surprise to realize that the young Mr. Kennedy had checked in late on a Friday night with his old college friend. The reservation was in his friend’s name. Suffice it to say, as the weekend progressed I asked John Kennedy if I could take a picture of him. He agreed and we went to our owner’s quarters. Our sons, Aaron and Daniel, then 10 and 7, sensed this was a special occasion. Aaron seemed to know that it was important for John to know how much his father had been loved by his parents and grandparents. He handed John a letter from his mother, Jacqueline, which had been sent to my father back in 1964, expressing thanks for the small donation my parents had made to the Kennedy Library. John stood quietly in our home, carefully studying this letter, his mother’s note, rubbing his hand against the paper and then with a smile he returned it to Aaron.”

His ex-girlfriends demurely say that he calls, sends flowers, stays in touch. The marriage speculation, of course, never ends. A couple of years ago it was Daryl Hannah. Lately it has been Calvin Klein spokeswoman Carolyn Bessette, seen wrapped in his suntanned arms at a recent Hamptons party. "I hear he's pretty serious this time," said a former girlfriend, though she added, "you knew when you went out with him that he was dating two or three other wom

JFK Jr. holds hands with Daryl Hannah John F. Kennedy Jr. made a splash escorting Daryl Hannah to a 30th birthday bash for his cousin, Tim Shriver, at Lola's in New York Tuesday. For all you John-John fanatics, Kennedy (blue trousers, white shirt and red suspenders) had fried chicken, and Daryl (blue jeans and shirt) settled for chicken curry. And there was a lot of hand-holding going on.
