Details of JFK Jr.'s 'whirlwind' fling with Madonna revealed

Close confidants said John F. Kennedy Jr.'s brief romance with Madonna was “a fun adventure for him.” One insider recalled, “He did say something to me…So I knew that it did occur,” and added that the pair hooked up once before remaining friends. RoseMarie Terenzio, Kennedy Jr.’s longtime chief of staff and co‑author of JFK Jr.: An Intimate Oral Biography, described the liaison as a “whirlwind little romance” that “didn’t really go further,” in part because Madonna was on tour and scheduling got in the way.

Terenzio said the two “friend‑zoned each other” and kept a playful, flirty friendship, exchanging teasing banter and even faxes. “Like her giving him s–t and him giving her s–t,” she said, calling their rapport “cute” and “funny.” Madonna has since named Kennedy Jr.

the best sex of her life, saying, “I’m only going to name dead people,” before whispering “John Kennedy Jr.” Kennedy Jr. later married Carolyn Bessette in 1996; the couple died in a plane crash three years later.
