In May 2012, not long before Conor Kennedy began dating Taylor Swift, his mother, Mary Richardson Kennedy (pictured above,) committed suicide at age 52. According to People, she and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. had been estranged since 2010, but he spoke kindly about his former wife at her memorial service. “She was the most perfect human being I ever met,” he said. “She had these demons, and she didn’t deserve it.”
In August 2019, Conor and his family endured yet another shocking loss when his cousin, Saoirse Kennedy Hill, reportedly died of a drug overdose at age 22. In light of all these sorrows, The New York Times asserted that being part of the Kennedy family tree can be both “a privilege and burden.”
Fortunately, Conor has proved resilient and was spotted in New York City with a new girlfriend, model Michaela Vybohova, in August 2019. According to the Daily Mail, that was his first high-profile relationship since that episode with Taylor Swift.
