Family Disputes Claims of JFK 'Love Child'


The family of a Texas-born investment banker who has told reporters he may be the love child of President John F. Kennedy says his claims "are unequivocally false and have been fabricated."

Jack Worthington II told newspapers in Canada, Vanity Fair magazine and ABC News that his mother advised him four years ago that his father was the former president.

His mother, Evelyn Worthington, a former Texas school teacher who lives in Houston, "has never met John F. Kennedy nor any other member of the Kennedy family," according to the statement issued by the family today.

Vanity Fair posted a lengthy article about Worthington's claims on its Web site today, reporting that its analysis of JFK hair strands supported "non-paternity."

The article, by David Friend, recounts how Worthington approached the magazine through an attorney in 2006 who said Worthington, 46, was prepared to change his last name to Kennedy and name his newborn child John F. Kennedy III.

In an interview with ABC News, Worthington said his relationship with his mother was strained and that he did not know details of how or when she would have been with the president.

Worthington was born Nov. 22, 1961, indicating he would have been conceived in the first month Kennedy took office.

1. We know Kennedy was a horn dog
but this guy is effectively calling his mother a very nasty name. A DNA test will soon sort him out and push him into ignominious obscurity.

Or he'll become a fine GOP politician.

By the way, whatever happened to the John Edwards love child story?
