Jackie Kennedy, once romantically linked with Hollywood heartthrob Warren Beatty, was reportedly left dissatisfied by their brief affair.
Despite Beatty’s reputation as a s** symbol, Jackie was underwhelmed by their encounter.
During 1978, when Jackie was actively working as a book editor and seeking famous personalities to pen their memoirs, she engaged in a short-lived relationship with Warren.
The former first lady found the actor intriguing and agreed to go on a few dates with him before they spent a night together at her residence on Fifth Avenue.
Despite Beatty’s charm and reputation as a ladies’ man, Jackie confided in a friend that she perceived him as excessively self-absorbed and was ultimately disillusioned by his performance in the bedroom.
Author J. Randy Taraborrelli has detailed the romance between Warren and Jackie in his latest book titled Jackie: Public, Private, Secret.
Reflecting on the situation, Taraborrelli remarked that Jackie’s perspective on Warren resonated with many, underscoring a shared human experience.
Warren Beatty had harbored aspirations of portraying Jackie’s husband, President John F. Kennedy, in the 1963 film PT 109.
Nevertheless, John ultimately selected Cliff Robertson for the role, a decision that disappointed Warren.
Years later, Warren encountered Jackie, having reportedly been involved romantically with numerous prominent female figures in show business.
His biographer asserted that Warren’s conquests exceeded 10,000 before he eventually tied the knot with Annette Bening.
According to sources close to Jackie, she expressed her discontent with Warren’s incessant self-centered conversations, leading her to distance herself from the actor.
Jackie purportedly remarked to friends that she had grown weary of Warren’s self-absorption and his relentless focus on his career, a topic that failed to capture her interest.
Taraborrelli further disclosed an instance where a mutual friend inquired about Jackie’s opinion on Warren’s prowess in the bedroom.
Allegedly, she responded nonchalantly, stating that he was satisfactory, noting the limitations men faced in such matters.
