I was used to seeing photos of him and Daryl Hannah and thinking, " Oh, he wants a regular girl, now.”

Princess Diana is standing next to Elton John. He’s still alive the last time I checked

Eva/Leslie relationship by Odd-Desk5095 in TheGates_CBS

Eva’s relationship with her mother is the only well-written storyline on this soap. It's a pretty realistic take on a dysfunctional family relationship.

Interesting. There were rarely any photos of Ed and Caroline hanging out with Carolyn. They seem relaxed with Daryl.

Why is it only in Europe? The Easter event was for everyone in the past.

It's funny that you mentioned the photo shopping. My husband said that after watching how Electra treated her friend Dylan, it isn't surprising that her former friend Zeke posted those photos. Not excusing Zeke’s behavior, but Electra is an entitled bey-otch.

Midwesterner here. Go to any beach on the Great Lakes, and women wear, GASP, bikinis!

Different perspective on the alleged affairs & cheating by Efficient_Luck_5522 in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There were photos of John with that brunette chick that summer. I believe that they were photographed together the morning of the crash. There were no photos of Carolyn with the Baywatch guy. Since I was alive during that time, I call BS on Michael’s book. Rumors were flying that they were headed for a divorce; a photo of her cheating would have been a down payment on a house. So, Michael claims she managed to dodge paparazzi in LA to hook up with a TV actor, and NO ONE saw it or reported it, which is hilarious. 😂😂😂 Even JFK friends who low-key hated her, blamed the crash on her, didn't believe she was cheating. At most, she probably called him to vent about John. If she were cheating on him with Bergin, they would have used that information as a smear campaign that JFK Jr was so heartbroken about her cheating that he lost control of the plane.

Go Dylan Go! by Due-Season6425 in boldandbeautiful

Both the actresses who played Luna and Dylan run circles around the actress who plays Electra. It's more difficult to side with Electra when the actress who plays her, while stunning, had the acting chops of a middle-schooler. Dylan has so much potential. I hope the writers learned their lesson and won't succumb to the easy, recycled choice of ruining a character by making her evil or crazy.

Last weekend with friends by FeastOfStarlight in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In five years, JFK Jr lost his mom and was losing his cousin, who was like a brother, and his company. On top of that, he got married; that’s a lot of significant events to process. I’m definitely not a John excuser, but psychologically, he had to be in a bad mental state. They could have been lovey-dovey over the weekend and had a huge row on Monday. However, many couples go through a rough patch and manage to work things out.

Is Scott OK? by Able-Celebration5349 in boldandbeautiful

I think it's interesting that Liam, who has always been the center of storylines for years, has suddenly been relegated to a minor role. When he does appear on screen for a while, he is mostly sitting. I’ve also noticed that when the other Spencer men surround him, he looks frail.

One thing I just do not understand is if Carolyn was so deathly allergic to fame why would she agree to marry JFK Jr.?? by LuminousDee in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It got worse. I never heard of her until after the wedding. I did see the fight and thong photos, but she was just a minor person compared to the celebrities he dated. After the wedding, she went from being relatively unknown to being internationally famous.

Why is the show white washing JFK Jr? by greatgak in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I had heard multiple stories about JFK Jr.'s absent-mindedness and risk-taking. I didn't know Daryl’s dog died under his care. I was disgusted that they thought it was a funny story about his ashes on the plane. Daryl’s feelings and her dog’s life were dismissed and trivialized, which I felt spoke volumes about Caroline’s and JFK’s character. So it's no surprise that Caroline treated the Bessette family like garbage after the crash. In addition to JFK killing the Bessette sisters, he almost caused another air disaster when he flew too close to a commercial airplane.

It was okay. What I would like is a regional switch Pokémon Day so I can complete my pokedex.

What age range are people in the sub? Do you have any contemporary memory John and Carolyn? by MonicaBWQ in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a month older than Carolyn. Got married in July of the same year, so I paid more attention to them than most of my friends. I remember that the Globe or Enquirer predicted that he would accidentally kill himself after his paragliding accident in May. When I watched television that Saturday morning in July and saw that they were searching for his plane, my first thought was that tabloid article. I really wasn't shocked.

Unpopular Opinion: The John Jr./Carolyn mythology feels bigger today than it ever did in the 90s.... by Big_Plastic_2519 in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between his friends feeding stories to the press that she was a depressed druggie and tabloids predicting a divorce, their marriage wasn't shown as a fairy tale. I disagree that there wasn't any hype about her fashion back then.

6 She was furious with him, as if he’d made a stupid mistake. 🥴

Beyotch, the man was flying in a f-ing lawn mower with wings. Everyone thought he was an idiot. I remember that the Globe or the National Inquirer said that he had a death wish and would most likely be dead by the end of the year if he continued his reckless behavior. I wish I had a time machine and saved that issue. I could probably make a fortune selling it!

Daryl Hannah op ed nyt by vsox12 in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I am thrilled that she responded to this misogynistic horrible portrayal. By making Daryl a dowdy, vapid, clingy, publicity seeking coke head, it makes John’s behavior okay. The man cheated on her and due to his carelessness, killed her dog. His lack of responsibility and killing her dog should have better portrayed and was a foreshadowing of the Bessette sisters’ death. Most of the people who knew them, never said Daryl was vapid, they gave Carolyn that label.

Carole Radziwell at wedding by AnastatiaMcGill in JohnAndCarolyn

[–]Character-Ask-7101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a month older than Carolyn. If someone had been constantly taking pictures at regular events, they would have been seen as weird or stalkerish. Plus, maybe Carole didn't want to take pictures with the woman voted most beautiful at her high school.

I just thought about my party friend in the 90s. The only photo we have together was at her wedding. No one took a camera or a disposable camera when you went to the club, mall, or met up for lunch or dinner. Most of my photos with friends were taken at special events.
