You can still see the sadness when he talks about her. I’m happy for him that he has great memories of them to look back on ❤️

There's only 15 years' difference between Carolyn Bessette's wedding and Princess Diana's, and yet their dresses were like night and day.

Supposedly she was two hours late getting to the church to marry jfk jr. She claimed she could not get into the wedding dress. Sounds weird to me was she having second thoughts? Check out the lost wedding tapes of jfk jr.

Her dress was cut on the bias ( It was made specifically to fit HER BODY) there were no buttons, zippers, meaning it had to go over her head. During this dressing, her hair and makeup was ruined and had to be redone completely. That is why she was so late. Please don’t pick this woman apart. Respect her after death

Probably nerves.

[@sheilac1845]

There are no coincidences Well well well 😳

...and on the wedding day, she couldn't get the dress on, and became a hissing Bridezilla who was two hours late. Talk about bad omens.
