Mary Kennedy went to her grave convinced that her husband, RFK Jr., had a fling with the wife of the man who broke up the marriage of his sister and Andrew Cuomo, The Post has learned.
A heartbroken Mary confided to a group of her closest friends that she believed Robert Kennedy Jr. had an affair with well-connected fund-raiser Ann Colley, two of her confidants told The Post.
One source who claimed to have been told about the purported hookup said that, if true, an affair with the wife of his sisters paramour is particularly tacky even for a Kennedy!
Mary told friends the alleged affair started after Colleys polo-playing husband, Bruce, began his highly publicized 2003 fling with Kerry, sparking Kerrys nasty split from now-Gov. Cuomo.
Bobby Kennedy Jr. had been asked to step in as a peacemaker when the Cuomo-and-Kennedy scandal erupted.
Instead, Mary told friends, Bobby wound up consoling Ann, a longtime board member of RFK Jr.s Riverkeeper environmental group.
Both Cuomo and Ann Colley divorced their spouses in the wake of the scandal.

Mary Kennedy hanged herself in her Westchester home last week.
Friends said she was inconsolable after Bobby filed to divorce her in 2010, cutting her off financially and parading new girlfriends in public.
The purported Colley affair was one of several a devastated Mary claimed she endured for much of her marriage.
It just broke her heart, said one friend. And he didnt care. He threw it back in her face, again and again.
Since Marys May 19 funeral, the Kennedys including Kerry, who was a best friend and boarding-school roommate of Marys have been very vocal about what they claim was her longtime battle with depression.

He was also arrested for heroin posession during the early 1980’s.
Thank you especilly the color commentary. :)
Didn’t some gypsy witch supposedly put a curse on the old man Kennedy and his decendants? Whatever, women (and girls) who come in contact with Kennedy men are doomed. John John’s wife had some sort of bad vibe coming off her even before they were married.
I doubt that man is banging many chicks.
Pigott... Pigott... What’s an unusual name and the first time I’ve seen it was here on FR just a few days ago... connected with Obama IIRC. Anyone remember or know which Pigott that is or what the scandal was?
I’ve heard that story - or a similar one. The Harvard Club and the Somerset Hotel were in the same block on Commonwealth Avenue. (The Somerset is now a condominium but used to be a hotel.) Old Joe used to stay at the Harvard Club and women weren’t allowed in the rooms so he’d walk down the block to the Somerset. Old Joe’s sons and grandsons continued the tradition.
Yikes, I always thought Jimmy looked like a Kennedy. They all have those huge teeth.
Cheryl Hines looks like a corpse to me, or a skeleton face similar to the one that used to hang in the science room in high school.
She thought RFK’s children were a bad influence.
She wasn't particularly fond of Mrs. RFK and I believe it was reported that the feelings were mutual. I think Jacqueine (sic?) had good instincts.
