Watch : Jack Schlossberg Reveals Mom Caroline Kennedy's Reaction to 'Love Story' Show

Jacqueline Kennedy believed in a Kennedy curse.

When her husband, President John F. Kennedy, was assassinated in Dallas in 1963-and then five years later her brother-in-law Robert F. Kennedy was fatally shot at the Ambassador Hotel after winning the California Democratic presidential primary-she thought no one in the family was safe, least of all her own two children, Caroline Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr.

Yet the iconic former first lady, who was only 64 when she died of non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 1994, took comfort toward the end of her life in believing her children had crossed some invisible threshold, that they were out of the woods.

But one crushing blow after another-not least John's shocking death in 1999 and, more recently, Caroline's 35-year-old daughter Tatiana Schlossberg's death from cancer and RFK granddaughter Kyle Kennedy's September passing at the age of 42, six years after surviving a paralyzing injury-has kept talk alive of the Kennedys being haunted by not just periodic misfortune, but the specter of death.

And members of the family have processed the ongoing conversation in their own ways.

 I've come to believe that it's not what has happened to our family that has been cursed,  JFK's sister Eunice Kennedy Shriver once said,  as much as it's the fact that we've never been able to deal with it privately.
