Janet Jennings Auchincloss

How has Jackie On Assistance's much-younger half-sister, who died of lung cancer at the age of only 39, escaped DL's attention?

The teenaged John Kerry dated her during the White House years.

Lewis Polk Rutherford. It doesn't get any more blue blood-sounding.

I'd like to see more pics of her husband - can't find many.

Some video outside the church at the wedding.

John John was a page and Caroline a flower girl.

One of the comments at youtube says she married young to get away from mom.

The couple relocated to Hong Kong where Rutherfurd was a financier.

She moved to Hong Kong to escape her famous half-sister’s shadow. Her mother sought to enlist Jackie’s support in changing Janet’s mind. Jackie refused, thinking Janet was making the right decision. “If I could leave and start over in a place where nobody would know me,” Jackie was quoted as saying, “I’d be the first one on that plane.”

Janet Jr supposedly was upset about her wedding. The presence of Jackie, Caroline and JFK Jr turned it inti a media circus and she was upstaged.

When she died, it devastated Jackie and her mother. Jackie left an inheritance to only one of Janet Jr.’s three kids.

Her brother is pedophile and family secret spiller Jamie Auchincloss.

Jackie stopped speaking to Jamie in the 70s. He claims it’s because he gave Kitty Kelley an interview. I wonder if it’s because he tried something with JFK Jr/she abruptly shut him out.

Why was baby Janet married in a Catholic church (St. Mary's in Newport)?

She was torn between her two wedding proposals. One from her future husband and the other from John Kerry. The family, including Jackie, did not want her marrying the politically ambitious Kerry.

Big Janet was rough on her kids.i think Jackie’s home in Georgetown (and later, the White House) were refuges for her younger siblings.
