Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy, was “depressed and despondent” shortly before she committed suicide, a source close to the former architect tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.
The long time friend, who spoke to Mary on Monday, said they were sadly not surprised by reports that the 52-year-old had taken her own life, as she was facing mounting financial woes and the end of her marriage.
As RadarOnline.com was first to report, Mary was discovered dead at her Mount Kisco, New York home Wednesday. A source told RadarOnline.com that she had committed suicide, we have since confirmed that she hanged herself in a barn.
“I spoke to Mary on Monday and she sounded extremely down,” the source tells RadarOnline.com. “She was very depressed and despondent and worried about the future.
“Mary said she was facing financial ruin, with American Express coming after her hard for an outstanding debt, along with several other creditors. In addition, she was concerned that Robert was about to substantially reduce the amount of financial support he gave her and she was terrified she would have to file for bankruptcy and lose her home.”
“Mary has struggled with alcoholism throughout her life,” her friend tells RadarOnline.com. “She had been hitting the bottle again pretty heavily recently.
“When I heard the news that she may have taken her own life I was devastated, but not that surprised. It was in the back of my mind that she may do something like this, and that was compounded by the conversation I had with her Monday.
