The Legacy of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis: America’s Beloved First Lady

The tale unfolds with Jackie grappling with her husband John’s continuous infidelities despite their child’s arrival and her past miscarriages. One night, John’s late return from his mistress leads to Jackie’s breaking point, fleeing in her nightgown.

Overwhelmed, Kennedy summons an ambulance, landing Jackie in Valleyhead Psychiatric Clinic. There, against her wishes, she suffers three harrowing electroshock treatments over a week. These sessions, described in later interviews, marked the darkest chapter of her life.
