The Kennedys; America's Most Deceitful Family

Medro · Sep 10, 2013

With his chiselled features, piercing blue eyes and a surname that opened just about any door in America, Robert Kennedy Jnr must have been all but irresistible to the women he tried to seduce.

The fact he was married with children seems to have given neither him nor his many lovers pause for thought.
Yet when he had bedded yet another woman, he would go home and write in a diary that the liaison constituted yet another âmuggingâ â of him, not his companion. He also wrote that if he went a day without adultery it was a âvictoryâ.

Unfortunately, there were far too few days when his âlust demonsâ, as he called them, did not win their battle.
In the extraordinary diary discovered by his wife shortly before she committed suicide in grief over the break-up of their marriage, the son of Bobby Kennedy â and the nephew of JFK â recorded serial philandering which puts even the priapic ways of his presidential uncle in the shade.

When challenged by a journalist who had been handed the bombshell diary, Kennedy, a 59-year-old former heroin addict, initially insisted it did not exist, but yesterday belatedly admitted it was indeed his.

Across 398 pages, in puerile detail, the thick, red journal records his every conquest during the year 2001 â and in the process becomes the latest shameful chapter in the history of Americaâs most venerated yet most dysfunctional family.

Part self-flagellating Catholic mea culpa, and part smutty schoolboy boasting, the diary includes a scorecard in which he recorded the names of all the women he slept with, alongside a number between one and ten denoting how far he went with each.

The numbers corresponded to sexual acts, with ten denoting intercourse. At the back of the diary, in the section marked âcash accountsâ, Kennedy noted the names of all 37 women with whom he cheated on his wife that year â 16 of whom got tens. They reportedly include a lawyer, a doctor, an environmental activist and the wife of a famous actor.
The shocking details were revealed by the New York Post, which has seen the diary.

The timing of his adultery was particularly awful. Not only did Mary give birth to their fourth child in July of that year, but many of his adulterous liaisons came at a time when the rest of America was deeply traumatised by the September 11 attacks.
It seems even that horror was not enough to quash his addiction to sex, which led Kennedy â on November 13, 2001, his diary reveals â to seduce three women in a single day, although only one was a âtenâ.

On the same day, he mustered enough energy to squeeze in a charity fundraising dinner at a Manhattan hotel, where he sat next to the paralysed Superman star Christopher Reeve.

That month alone, as Kennedy travelled around the U.S. for his work as an environmental campaigner, he listed one womanâs name on 22 different days.

In May, he hosted a dinner for Leonardo DiCaprio in New York, but âgot mugged on my way homeâ â noting the womanâs name, and the fact she inflicted a ten on him. âIâve got to do better,â he added, as though confessing to a priest.

Sometimes he managed to resist. âI narrowly escaped being mugged by a double team [two women],â he related in a February diary entry. âIt was tempting, but I prayed and God gave me the strength to say no.â

Serial adultery is a weakness among the testosterone-fuelled male Kennedys. Patriarch Joe Kennedy showed the way with his open affair with actress Gloria Swanson, reportedly telling his sons â John, Bobby and Ted â to get âlaid as often as possibleâ. They dutifully obliged.

It seems the infidelity gene has been inherited in a third generation.

Even to his diary, Robert Jnr couldnât be completely honest. Despite Bobby Kennedyâs own track record, his son comically insists he was ashamed by what his father might think of his own philandering. And he makes clear in the book that he is one of many younger Kennedys who have had trouble living up to the familyâs gilded âCamelotâ reputation.

After his father was assassinated in 1968, Robert Jnr âstruggled to be a grown upâ, he told his diary.
He went on: âI felt he was watching me from Heaven. Every time I was afflicted with sexual thoughts, I felt a failure. I hated myself. I began to lie, to make up a character who was the hero I wished I was.â
Since when was having âsexual thoughtsâ a sign of failure in the thrusting Kennedy family?

But the Irish-American clan has always been able to hide its transgressions behind its supposedly staunch Catholicism, and Robert Jnr himself used Biblical imagery to describe his own womanising.

âDespite the desperate things happening in the world, my life is . . . great,â he wrote on November 5, 2001. âSo Iâve been looking for ways to screw it up. Iâm like Adam and Eve, and I can have everything but the fruit. But the fruit is all I want.â

On another occasion, he told himself to be âhumble like a monk. Keep your hands to yourself. Avert your eyesâ. He should avoid women, he added, as he didnât have the strength to âresist their charmsâ.
When he spent a month in a Puerto Rican jail over his involvement in a protest against U.S. bombing exercises on a local island, he told his diary: âThereâs no women. Iâm happy!â

On the eve of being released, he claimed he had a âthree-point planâ to fix his âgreatest defect . . . my lust demonsâ. Such high hopes appeared to last little more than two weeks before he was again recording the names of women he had seduced.
The infidelity in the 2001 diary alone would be enough for any philanderer, but inevitably it was only one chapter in Kennedyâs bed-hopping lifestyle.

His serial adultery was cited ten years later in the breakdown of his marriage to Mary, whom he had known since she was 14.
They also shared a history of alcoholism, which Robert Jnr compounded with a drug problem, being convicted of heroin possession in 1983. Mary was pregnant with their first child when they married in 1994, just a few weeks after he divorced first wife, Emily.

Kennedy â who has talked in the past about running for the U.S. Senate â clearly regards himself as a public figure. He has endorsed various Democrats in presidential campaigns and appeared in an ad campaign for Hillary Clinton. Yesterday, he faced further embarrassment as the New York Post published what he revealed in his diary about fellow public figures.
Robert Jnr, who has positioned himself as a lion of the Liberal-Left, described George W. Bush as âan idiot and a puppetâ a day after 9/11.

But he was equally damning of black allies on the Left. Civil rights activist and presidential contender Al Sharpton was a âbuffoonâ whose âvenal blackmail and extortion schemes taint all black leadershipâ. Fellow civil rights firebrand Jesse Jackson was, he wrote, a publicity addict who made him feel âdirtyâ.

The Kennedy brand remains so strong that Robert Jnr will be forgiven his political posturing in time, but his sexual antics will be rather harder to sweep away.
His compulsive infidelity is particularly damning given that the Kennedys have been in a bitter dispute with his wifeâs family over the circumstances of her death.

Mary was found hanged in a garage at her home in Westchester County, outside New York, in May last year. She had been struggling with depression, alcoholism and financial problems as she fought a vicious divorce and child custody battle with her estranged husband.
The year before her death, the Kennedy camp leaked a shocking court affidavit from Robert Jnr in which he asked for a protection order against his wife.

Kennedy claimed she had been violently abusing him since they married, and once â in a rage about his friendship with his ex-wife Emily â hit him in the face, her engagement ring crushing his tear duct and causing permanent damage.
But even he implied she was justified in telling their children he was a âsex addictâ. By 2001 â the year covered by the diary â he was âcommitting numerous infidelities to keep my sanityâ, he admitted in the affidavit.

After Maryâs death, Kennedy âwho was dating the actress and Curb Your Enthusiasm TV star Cheryl Hines at the time â said his wife had phoned him the day before her death pleading for help.
âShe told me that she was sorry for everything . . . that everything was her fault,â he told police.
But her family were so appalled by his behaviour towards her that they insisted on holding a separate memorial service, from which the Kennedys were excluded.

We now know at least partly what might have sent Mary Kennedy out of her mind â even, according to their housekeeper, once attacking her husband with a pair of scissors as he sat in the bath. Some women would say he was lucky she didnât kill him, given the way he behaved.
The âcurse of the Kennedysâ may have become a part of American folklore, but from the evidence of Robert Jnrâs self-pitying diary, no one believes in it more than the family does.

She didn't think out the scissors thing properly, which is understandable. She could have improved her chances considerably by employing electric scissors. As well as stabbing/hacking, these would have given her electrocution and asphyxiation options as well.

Don't bother catering to my needs, I have none when it comes to gossipmongering. I doubt anyone does.
