Kerry Kennedy, the daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and Ethel Kennedy, recently shared a poignant photo on social media from her mother's memorial service. The image captured a gathering of the Kennedy family, including her brother, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., alongside prominent Democratic Party leaders, such as President Joe Biden, former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The photo, taken at the memorial service for Ethel Kennedy, showed the family members surrounding a portrait of their beloved matriarch. In the center of the group stood President Biden, symbolizing unity and shared respect for the Kennedy family. Notably, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines appeared in the photo without smiles, reflecting the complex dynamics within the family.
During the recent presidential election, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. drew attention for his challenging of President Biden, first in the Democratic primary and later as an independent candidate. His critical stance towards Biden on the campaign trail, as well as his subsequent endorsement of former President Donald Trump, sparked controversy within the Kennedy family. Kerry Kennedy and other siblings openly expressed their disapproval of Robert's political choices.
In her social media post accompanying the photo, Kerry Kennedy expressed love and longing for her late mother, writing, 'We love and miss you, Mum.' The post served as a touching tribute to Ethel Kennedy and highlighted the enduring bond shared by the Kennedy family despite their political differences.
