Here ye!
Mayor Lori Lightfoot took time out last weekend for the perfect place to cool off from the city heat: officiating at the wedding of Chris Kennedy, grandson of the late, great Robert F. Kennedy, and his bride, Erin Daigle, at the legendary Kennedy family compound in Hyannis Port, Maine.
“Chris and Erin were supposed to get married last July 24 ... but COVID shut that down,” said the very proud father of the groom, former Illinois gubernatorial candidate Chris Kennedy, who raised his branch of the Kennedy clan on Chicago’s North Shore, where his wife, Sheila, grew up.
Lightfoot and the groom connected during his father’s race in 2018, before she became mayor, and has become a close family friend of the Kennedys.
“They met during my campaign and became kindred spirits,” Kennedy said.
“By the way, my son Chris and the mayor both have this in common: They like to fight above their weight; have a deep sense of social justice; and have never met anyone they are afraid of!”
This is actually the second time the mayor, a lawyer, was the officiant at the couple’s nuptials.
Last weekend’s ceremony “gave the mayor the opportunity to marry them twice, the first time last December at City Hall,” Kennedy chuckled. The couple had put off a family-style wedding until it was pandemic safe to travel.(snip)
On the political side, Sneed is told several Kennedy family members preparing for U.S. ambassadorships in the Biden administration (Vicki Kennedy to Austria and Caroline Kennedy to Australia) were there — as well as celeb Kennedy wives like actress Cheryl “Curb Your Enthusiasm” Hines, who was the TV wife of actor Larry David and is married to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Bride looks pregnant.
I guess it is newsworthy for a Kennedy descendant to get married prior to rape or manslaughter charges being filed...that we know of.
“Hyannis Port, Maine”
Try again. Is Cape Cod in Maine?
When I saw "Lightfoot" in the headline my first thought was Gordon Lightfoot.
Good heavens—are these people supposed to be Catholic? And they have a black lesbian conduct their wedding service? UCK.
” The Kennedys aren’t Down Easters. They are Massholes.”
Thank God!
Don’t want ‘em or need ‘em up heah!
