Fx Celebrated The Series Premiere Of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn

FX rolled out the red carpet in a major way for the highly anticipated premiere of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, celebrating with a star-studded screening event at Carnegie Hall in New York City that brought Hollywood glam to one of the city’s most iconic venues.

Leading the night’s cast appearances were Sarah Pidgeon, who stars as Carolyn Bessette, and Paul Anthony Kelly as John F. Kennedy Jr., joined by Naomi Watts as Jackie Kennedy Onassis and Grace Gummer as Caroline Kennedy. Also on hand were Alessandro Nivola as Calvin Klein, Sydney Lemmon as Lauren Bessette, Erich Bergen as Anthony Radziwill, Dree Hemingway as Daryl Hannah, and Constance Zimmer as Ann Marie Messina, among others, all stepping out to celebrate the first big look at the series.

After the screening, the party didn’t slow down—guests kept the celebration going at The Pool, where the after-party drew an equally buzzy crowd. Among the notable names in attendance were Martha Stewart, Benito Skinner, Cassandra Grey, Elizabeth Sulcer, Mark Ronson, Mia Healy, Jordan Roth, Sam Nivola, Mark Duplass, Ira Glass, Derek Blasberg, and more.

For viewers ready to dive in, the tune-in is set: FX’s Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette premieres Thursday, February 12, at 9 pm ET on FX and Hulu.

The limited series, the first installment in Ryan Murphy’s Love Story anthology, traces the undeniable chemistry, whirlwind courtship, and high-profile marriage of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. This iconic romance unfolded under intense public fascination. Inspired by Elizabeth Beller’s book Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, the story follows JFK Jr., America’s closest thing to royalty, and Bessette, a fiercely independent fashion force who rose from sales assistant to Calvin Klein executive and became a trusted confidante of the brand’s legendary founder, as their private relationship became a national obsession.

Created by Connor Hines, the series is executive produced by Ryan Murphy alongside Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, Connor Hines, Eric Kovtun, Nissa Diederich, Scott Robertson, Monica Levinson, Kim Rosenstock, D.V. DeVincentis, and Tanase Popa, with Max Winkler executive producing and directing the pilot. The project is produced by 20th Television.
