For what it’s worth, the woman was challenged by Barbara Walters on The View today. Did she think of Caroline Kennedy? Why did she put into print a story that did not need to be told?
The JFK intern said she needed to free herself from the burdens of living with a secret for so long, and is hopeful her story is helpful to others who are suffering from keeping a secret.
Also, she was outed in a previously published book, and wanted to be in control of her own story, rather than let someone else define her.
BS.So it's all about "herself" and her "burden" - no concern for the embarrassment for her own children and grandchildren? Did they need to know that Grandma was the president's slut?
Most families have secrets. Most of the time, these things are better left secret.
