JFK Had a Sexual Relationship with an Intern

Sunday May 25, 2003
For decades we have known that President John F. Kennedy had affairs while in office, but we didn't know that, like Clinton, he had a sexual affair with a White House intern. The relationship was discovered by Robert Dallek and is included in his new book, An Unfinished Life: John F. Kennedy, 1917-1963. The intern, Marion "Mimi" Fahnestock, is now 60 years old and living in New York. According to CNN, she admitted to the affair in a statement handed to the press: "From June 1962 to November 1963, I was involved in a sexual relationship with President Kennedy."
