Details About JFK Jr.'s Brief Romance With Sarah Jessica Parker
"The Kennedy fiasco," as Sarah Jessica Parker once referred to her short-lived romance with John F. Kennedy Jr. when speaking with The New York Times, almost made the beloved "Sex and the City" star a part of America's royal family. Before getting together with Matthew Broderick, according to People, Parker had a few months-long fling with the former first son in 1991.
The charismatic aviation enthusiast approached Parker after a play at the theater, prompting the actor to fangirl once she was on her own, in proper Carrie Bradshaw fashion. "You're not going to believe who asked me out," SJP screamed over the phone to her friend Adam Shankman, who detailed the instance to People.
Even though their love burned out quickly, the couple sure did have fun; at least that's what celebrity biographer Christopher Andersen claims. In his book, "The Good Son: JFK Jr. and the Mother He Loved," the author described one of the duo's NSFW encounters. According to Andersen, Parker once welcomed her beau at the airport wearing nothing but a fur coat and high heels. Despite their merriment, she soon realized Kennedy Jr. was too much of a public persona for her liking. "I never had any idea what real fame was until I met John," Parker said in her 1992 New York Times interview, continuing, "I feel like I should apologize for dating him. It has become the defining factor in the [public] person I am."
