Kennedy Jr. Back in the day, JFK Jr. was widely considered one of the most eligible bachelors in the world. Before his tragic death in a 1999 plane crash alongside his wife, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, the son of President John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis had all eyes on him wherever he went. Handsome, charismatic and endlessly photographed, he was even named People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1988 - a title that only fueled public intrigue surrounding his love life.
