John F. Kennedy had no shortage of female companionship throughout his lifetime, and one of his longest relationships before Carolyn Bessette was with an '80s movie star.
Kennedy dated Daryl Hannah from 1998 through 1994. They first met early in the 80s, per PEOPLE Magazine, on the Caribbean island of St. Martin. They reconnected in 1988 at a Kennedy family wedding of his aunt, Lee Radziwill, to director Herb Ross (Steel Magnolias, a film in which Hannah starred).
Their relationship was on-again, off-again for years. Reportedly, Kennedy's mother, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, was against their union, but PEOPLE said Hannah's stepmother, Sue Wexler, disputed those rumors. She told the outlet, "The stories I’ve heard are just unbelievable. Daryl told me [Onassis] has been very warm and affectionate.”
The Splash star is played by actress Dree Hemingway in the FX series Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette. She shared her thoughts about playing the titular role with the magazine, Town & Country.

She added, "Sometimes you can really love a person, and it just doesn’t work out. I wanted to be sensitive to the fact that this is her real life and have respect for people who have relationships that end.”
"Daryl so badly wants to be accepted into this family because she loves John so much,” Hemingway concluded. “I think she wants to have this connection, and she’s so badly wanting to settle down and be more to this person, but there’s a conflict there. He's met somebody who he has these sparks with.”
The sparks Hemingway referred to were the ones he found with the woman who would become his future wife, Carolyn Bessette. They first met at the Calvin Klein flagship store in 1992 and would become a full-fledged couple in 1994 after the death of Kennedy's mother, Jackie.

Kennedy proposed to Bessette in July 1995. They married on September 21, 1996, in an intimate ceremony on Georgia’s Cumberland Island.
On July 16, 1999, the plane Kennedy piloted en route to Rory Kennedy’s wedding, with Carolyn and her older sister Lauren onboard, crashed, according to a report by the NTSB. It read that the crash occurred due to, "the pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane during a descent over water at night, which was a result of spatial disorientation. Factors in the accident were haze and the dark night."
