Four and a half month earlier was its earlier brother senatorRobert f. Kennedy assassinated in Los Angeles.

However, others saw the marriage as a positive symbol for the modern American woman who was not afraid to care for its own financial interests and to protect her family. In the beginning seemed the marriage a success but it soon became clear that this is not so. The couple spent little time together. Onassis could get along well with Caroline and John Junior, his son Alexander introduced John in the fly art (ironically they would later both perish in a plane crash). Jackie could not get along with her step-daughter Christina Onassis and spent a lot of time to travel and shopping.
