FX’s Love Story on JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette Builds Momentum on Streaming

The nine-episode dramatization streams weekly, carrying a disclaimer that private moments are fictionalized.

Overview

  • Three episodes are available now on Hulu and Disney+ internationally, with new installments premiering Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on FX/Hulu.
  • This week’s coverage highlights Sarah Pidgeon and Paul Anthony Kelly for their close physical resemblance to Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr.
  • Following early styling backlash, the production installed costume designer Rudy Mance, who used archival and vintage pieces to closely mirror Bessette-Kennedy’s 1990s wardrobe.
  • Episode 4, released Feb. 20, turns to early strains in the relationship without departing from the show’s stated blend of sourced history and imagined private moments.
  • Family objections continue to surface, with Jack Schlossberg previously condemning the project as profiteering, as producers urge viewers to judge the finished work.
