‘Love Story’: How JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessette’s Infamous Park Fight Was Brought to TV

One of the lowest points in John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette’s relationship was captured for the entire world to see and judge. In Episode 5 of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, the series tackles the couple’s shocking fight in Battery Park, which took place 30 years ago on February 25, 1996.

Photos of John and Carolyn yelling and grabbing at each other, with their dog still on his leash nearby, were splashed all across the tabloids. The FX series goes beyond what we’ve seen in the photos and gets up close and personal with John and Carolyn, played by Paul Anthony Kelly and Sarah Pidgeon, as the tension between them reaches a breaking point.
