A revealing memoir has surfaced, shedding light on a scandalous affair between former U.S. President John F. Kennedy and a young intern who lost her virginity to him in the confines of his wife’s bedroom.

Mimi Alford, now a retired church administrator residing in New York City, discloses the intimate details of their 18-month relationship, which only concluded with Kennedy’s untimely demise.
