Jackie Kennedy ‘had an affair with ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev and so did Bobby Kennedy’

Jackie Kennedy ‘had an affair with ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev and so did Bobby Kennedy’, new book based on interviews with Jackie’s ‘closest confidantes’ reveals

Claims: The book reports alleged conversations with Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal and Truman Capote, including Vidal and Capote’s ‘revelations’ about Jackie Kennedy’s love life

Driven to distraction by the amorous betrayals of her
husband, Jackie Kennedy embarked on a wild fling with ballet dancer Rudolf
Nureyev while she was still in the White House, according to a new tell-all
book.

Nureyev, who was nine years younger than the First Lady,
was also once spotted with Jackie’s brother-in-law Robert F. Kennedy ‘kissing
each other passionately in a phone box’, the book claims.

Much has been written through the years about President
Kennedy’s dalliances while in office. His mistresses were famously said to
include actresses Marilyn Monroe and Angie Dickinson, mafia moll Judith Exner
and a 19-year-old White House intern.
