Meet John F. Kennedy's 3 grandchildren, including Jack Schlossberg

The Kennedy family has been a fixture of American history, society, politics, pop-culture and beyond for well over 100 years, starting with Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. , the austere politician and businessman born in 1888, who with his wife Rose Kennedy — herself the daughter of a former Boston mayor — welcomed nine children, including former President John F. Kennedy.

Kennedy, who was assassinated in November of 1963, was the second born of the nine children; some of his siblings include the late attorney general and presidential hopeful Robert "Bobby" Kennedy, who was also assassinated, in 1968, Edward "Ted" Kennedy , infamous for the 1969 Chappaquiddick incident, and Rosemary Kennedy, who was left permanently incapacitated at 23 after her father, also infamously, arranged to have a lobotomy performed on her.

Since 1947, there has always been at least one member of the Kennedy family actively working in politics, most recently Joe Kennedy III, the grandson of RFK, who served as the U.S. representative for Massachusetts's 4th congressional district from 2013 to 2021.

His uncle, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. , recently failed to qualify for a CNN presidential debate against President Joe Biden and Donald Trump , as part of his flailing run as an Independent, which his family and Biden have denounced. Beyond politics, other Kennedy family members who have made a name for themselves in a post-Camelot era include Maria Shriver, the daughter of JFK's sister Eunice Kennedy and her husband Robert Sargent Shriver Jr.

Though the Kennedy family tree is certainly expansive — former CIA agent Amaryllis Fox and former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo are also connected via marriage — the former president himself has only three grandchildren.
