Brooke Shields<\/strong><\/a> is looking back fondly on her brief time with the late John F. Kennedy Jr<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Appearing on the Thursday, May 21, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen<\/em><\/a>, Shields, 60, was asked what she thought about FX\u2019s Love Story<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The series was loosely based on JFK Jr.\u2019s romance with Carolyn Bessette<\/strong><\/a> before their deaths in 1999. Since its February release, the show has received mixed reviews from some of the real-life people depicted in the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched it start to finish. I loved it. I thought the acting was amazing,\u201d Shields said on WWHL<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tCaroline Kennedy and her son, Jack Schlossberg, only watched a brief scene from FX\u2019s Love Story that was inspired by their family. \u201cI showed her a clip of her, and we were laughing so hard,\u201d Schlossberg, 33, said on the Wednesday, April 15, episode of Katie Couric\u2019s \u201cNext Question\u201d podcast. \u201cThe [actor] was freaking out [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The actress clarified that her connection with JFK Jr. was never a fully fledged relationship, however.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t have a love story, I had a crazy, crazy crush,\u201d she explained. \u201cWe dated but I never slept with him so I don\u2019t know if that counts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Blue Lagoon<\/em> star added, \u201cHe was lovely to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shields also noted that her daughter Rowan Henchy<\/strong>, 23, worked on the series as a production assistant. (Shields shares Rowan and Grier<\/strong>, 20, with her husband Chris Henchy<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n

Speaking to People<\/em> in an interview published on May 18, Shields recalled being surprised when her daughter informed her that her 1980s fling with the politician was mentioned in the series.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was a little weird,\u201d Shields told the publication. \u201cI was away, and my daughter called me and she says, \u2018Oh my God, you\u2019re mentioned in Love Story<\/em>,\u2019 and she\u2019s like, \u2018Is it true?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Shields continued, \u201cI was like, \u2018OK, I\u2019d be happy to tell you all the stories if you want, but \u2014 yes.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

In March, Rowan joked about her mom and JFK Jr<\/a>. via a TikTok video. \u201cI wonder if JFK Jr. was a good kisser?\u201d Rowan wrote over the clip, while lip-synching to Charli XCX\u2019s \u201cBoom Clap.\u201d<\/p>\n

The camera then panned to Shields, who also mouthed the lyrics. \u201cOne of the best,\u2019\u201d text overlaying the video read.<\/p>\n

Shields previously shared details about her dating experience with JFK Jr. during an interview with The Howard Stern Show<\/em> in 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did have a real date. I wouldn\u2019t sleep with him because I kind of loved him too much,\u201d she recalled. \u201cIt was beyond not-disappointing. I froze though because he was so precious to me. I was like, \u2018Oh, my God, you\u2019re falling in love, and if you sleep with him he may not talk to you again \u2014 and you can\u2019t handle that.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cI wasn\u2019t playing a game. I really was just so afraid of being really hurt, because if I slept with him I would\u2019ve given him my entire universe, my heart, my everything.\u201d<\/p>\n
