Late socialite John F. Kennedy, JR.’s former childhood sweetheart and lover has turned the journals she wrote to cope with the grief of her ex-boyfriend’s death into a new book about her time with American ‘royalty’.
Actress Christina Haag, 50, enjoyed a five-year romance with Kennedy, Jr. in the 1980s and she recounts the special relationship she had with President John F. Kennedy’s son in her memoir Come to the Edge.
She tells the Los Angeles Times newspaper, “What I was really writing about is a love story, and it happens to be with a boy I met in high school, lived with in college as roommates and then fell in love with when I was about 25.
“We were together about five years and parted. The person happens to be John. It’s not a book about the Kennedy family. It’s a love story and a story of friendship. I began writing in 2003… I began writing after his death just to deal with my grief. It was several years later that it was a real desire to capture that time in my life and to hold on to those memories and embrace them.”
