The last meeting between them came just a week before JFK was assassinated in November 1963,

“‘I know that,’ he said, and shrugged. ‘But I’ll call you anyway.’”

Wife Jackie never acknowledged affair

Alford spent time in the Whitehouse as an intern, and she and Kennedy became close. She was invited to join Kennedy for a swim in the White House pool.
