Jackie Kennedy's Sister Was Almost Her Competition When Dating JFK
Sophia Edwards The story of how John F. Kennedy and Jackie Bouvier met is a scene straight out of a fairy tale. She was the beautiful "camera girl" for The Washington Times-Herald who received an invite to the decadent party of a handsome Massachusetts senator. Of course, neither of them came to the party without a little baggage. Per Daily Mail, JFK was apparently head over heels for a Palm Beach socialite named Durie Malcolm. Jackie was also in a deep romance with a man named John Husted, a relationship so serious that she would go on to be engaged to him (via Best Life Online).
Despite rumored romantic flames, that night at the party, JFK and Jackie would meet and sparks flew. There was just one little problem; it seemed there were also sparks flying between JFK and Lee, Jackie's younger sister, who was also at the party. The chemistry between these two was more than what Janet saw between JFK and Jackie, J. Randy Taraborrelli informed People.
