John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy were American royalty. The two were iconic and will always be a mystery that everyone wants to know more about. Including us. Now, that all being said, it doesn’t mean that we’ll believe everything that comes out about them because we’ll just never know what is true.
However, we’ll watch.
And we’ll definitely be watching Ryan Murphy’s take on their romance. The next season of American Love Story focuses on the two. John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy will be played by Paul Kelly and Sarah Pidgeon, respectively.
As production began this week in New York, Murphy was smart and released the first photos of the two in character. He knows that everyone will want to see those photos.
He wrote, “FIRST LOOK! 📸 Here are some stills from our LOVE STORY camera test. We started shooting this week in New York City and can’t wait until you see the romantic and tragic love story between America’s prince, JFK Jr., and fashion icon Carolyn Bessette—out Valentine’s Day week of 2026. I am thrilled to introduce you to Sarah Pidgeon as Carolyn and Paul Kelly as John F. Kennedy Jr. Over a thousand actors auditioned for each of these roles, and we absolutely found the perfect choices.”
