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

The Netflix series The Crown depicts a fictional encounter between Jackie and Queen Elizabeth II, showcasing a seemingly warm interaction during a Buckingham Palace tour. This portrayal adds a dramatic flair to their historic meeting.
