Howard Stern said Carolyn Bessette was 'very lovely.'

In a recent episode of his SiriusXM show, Howard Stern recalled what the lovers were like in real life as people criticized their portrayals in the series.

“I knew the real Carolyn Bessette,” he said. “I won’t say I knew her well, but we had many, many conversations, more than casual conversations. She was very lovely. She was like a really nice woman … I don’t want to go into how I knew her, but I knew her. I know enough to keep my mouth shut about that. Some stuff you do have to keep private … But she was very nice to me, very open and talkative. She didn’t give me the nose-up-in-the air kind of thing. I don’t have any juicy, gossipy story.”

Stern recalled meeting JFK Jr. when he posed on the cover of George in 1996.

“He actually showed up to the shoot,” the podcast host recalled. “It’s one of the worst covers I ever did, and I did a lot of bad ones. They convinced me to be chopping down a cherry tree with a chainsaw dressed up in colonel garb. I guess I was supposed to be George Washington, but George Washington didn’t wear this s--- I was wearing. I looked like Paul Revere in drag.”
