      Both were getting something out of the marriage and it wasn’t love for either of them. I’d be surprised if each didn’t realize that. It was a transaction. Jackie got wealth and protection and Aristotle got to thumb his nose at polite society that always looked down on him.

      JEAN KENNEDY SMITH PASSED AWAY 😢 YESTERDAY... WHAT A LOSS FOR A GREAT LADY. R.I.P.

  • @hectorcortez8766

    Jacqueline Onassis was a well known " fortune chaser". JFK left most of his money in trust to Caroline and John ( about 10 million/ Jacqueline was dependent on the Kennedys after JFK died). The Onassis Marriage was an opportunity , that worked out well for the former US First lady! Aristotle Onassis tried to leave her only $200,000 per year when he died. That was to be paid by the Onassis estate ( Christina would have been the overlord). Jacqueline and Teddy Kennedy fought to get Jacqueline a 25 million dollar payout.
    That monstrous payout in 1975,gave Jacqueline financial freedom (that would be 100 million in 2022 dollars/the time value of money). Jacqueline, Caroline and John lived on easy Street after Jacqueline got her payout from Christina Onassis! Caroline ( appointed Ambassador to Australia by President Biden) has had a very privileged, and exceptional life. She is the Ambassador to Australia as of July 2022 ( she was the Ambassador to Japan under President Obama)!

      Actually a number of Americans did feel disappointed when Jacqueline married him but a lot of us came to understand later why she needed to have access to that kind of financial power and she did not want to be under the thumb of Rose Kennedy .

    Why was it so bad. If he treated her well and took care of her whats the problem?

  •  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    the other reason why Jacki knew that Onassis could protect her, is because he was an "elite" and a world rich man. he also had criminal ties and Mafia ties. he had as much power as Rockefeller. I don' t believe the conspiracies, but those beliefs say that she was GIVEN to him, because she was the "purchased prize" of the victory over the USA pres and administration being killed by the Mafia and Lyndon Baines Johnson. it was a backroom deal, that if Kennedy got axed, part of the "spoils" would be split up among the participants in the killing of Kennedys and the COUP of the US govemt. Supposedly, Onassis was one of the "players" in that Coup. He won the spoil of Jackie as a trophy. She did NOT have a choice in the manner.....???

    Read the book about her, her mom, and her sister entitled Jackie, Janet, and Lee. Her mother raised them to value wealth and prestige. Lee had an affair with Aristotle before he married Jackie. Marrying Aristotle gave Jackie wealth and when Jackie died she didn’t leave Lee a dime.

      You are clueless. Aristotle Onassis was worth 500 Million! This was the most ,he was ever worth in his life! He was one of the wealthiest men in Greece! He shipped oil for some of the wealthiest Arabs in the Middle East! The emirs of United Arab Emirates, Qatar , and Bahrain used his ships. I am quite sure that Persians also used his tankers to ship oil across the oceans!

    Sally Quinn is vulgar and wrong to say all these untruths. The worst thing is that she states these false statements as ‘facts’. Back then Aristotle was a big catch, attractive in real life, and she did love things about him. More than Sally had achieved obviously as she speaks with jealousy and tries to sum up Jackie’s marriage to him in total. Disgusting. And by the way, Sally’s husband left her and she has a broken family. Makes sense she’d say all these things about Jackie.

    • @gardensofthegods
      @gardensofthegods 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Aristotle Onassis may have been considered attractive to someone like Maria Callas but believe me , a lot of Americans did NOT consider him attractive ... especially not after JFK .
      And I clearly recall a number of Americans feeling a bit disappointed when Jacqueline married Onassis ... I remember that clearly .
      But later on some of us did come to understand that she did not want to be controlled by Rose Kennedy and she needed to have financial power .
      What she found attractive about Onassis' life was his power and his financial power and the fact that he often entertained some of the most glamorous people .
      She knew there was a trade-off and it was worth it for her in the long run .

      @@gardensofthegods Yes but the way the woman talks about Jackie in this documentary is very disrespectful and bitchy. Jackie wasn’t an airhead and she never married for looks alone. She said she never found JFK attractive when they first met so she was a woman of depth, not a Kim Kardashian. She made good choices of the heart and she was capable of love. Whereas poor Sally Quinn is just leaking jealous. She should show some respect.
