Kerry Kennedy is writing ‘intimate' book about her mother, Ethel Kennedy
NEW YORK (AP) — Kerry Kennedy is working on a book about her late mother, Ethel Kennedy. 'Ethel: Faith, Hope, Family, and an Extraordinary American Life' is scheduled to come out in the fall of 2026. 'This intimate portrait of Ethel Skakel Kennedy offers a unique window into the life of a woman whose compassion, resilience, and dedication to justice have left an indelible mark on American history,' reads an announcement released Tuesday by HarperOne, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers. Kerry Kennedy, 65, is one of 11 children born to Ethel Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, the attorney general, U.S. senator and presidential candidate who was assassinated in 1968 . Ethel Kennedy, who died in 2024 at age 96, was an activist who founded the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, now called Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights. Kerry Kennedy serves as its president. 'Ethel' was co-written by Kerry Kennedy and author Maryanne Vollers, who has worked on books by Hillary Rodham Clinton and Billie Jean King among others. 'Kerry Kennedy draws upon her personal experiences and deep admiration to tell the story of her mother's life,' according to HarperOne. 'From Ethel's early years as a spirited young woman to her enduring influence as a matriarch of one of America's most storied families, 'Ethel' is an exploration of courage, empathy, and the power of activism.'

"I Think He's Dead Wrong": RFK Jr.'s Sister Kerry Kennedy Just Slammed Him On Live TV
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s sister Kerry Kennedy slammed several baseless conspiracy theories her brother has spread during his tenure as health and human services secretary, saying he's not fit for the job. 'I love Bobby and I find him incredibly charismatic. But I have said — and my other family members have been super clear about this — that we disagree again and again and again on the things that he's said,' she told CNN's Erin Burnett on Monday's episode of OutFront. Kerry Kennedy's response came after Burnett featured a clip from Sunday's episode of John Oliver's Last Week Tonight, where the comedian digs into Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his scandals. Oliver's commentary on the health secretary has since gone viral as he states, 'RFK in this job is dangerous.' The comedian added, 'He's currently spreading dangerous nonsense and gutting life-saving research, all while bringing in a basement quack.'

Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic who has long promoted initiatives aligned with right-winged conspiracy theories such as removing fluoride in water and consuming raw milk, has received more backlash in recent weeks for the offensive comments he made toward people with autism. 'These are kids who will never pay taxes. They'll never hold a job. They'll never play baseball. They'll never write a poem. They'll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted,' Kennedy said last week while pledging to find the cause of autism spectrum disorder by September. Related: Donald Trump Supporters Are Losing Their Minds Over The New Trump Tariffs, And It's Exactly The Meltdown We All Saw Coming Oliver raised alarm bells at the massive layoff within the Department of Health and Human Services. A top official within the National Institutes of Health has resigned under the current leadership, citing censorship. 'RFK needs to go, and by impeachment if necessary,' Oliver said. 'Too much damage has already been done. This is a man who is clearly in way over his worm-riddled head.' Burnett asked Kerry Kennedy on Monday if she agrees with Oliver's remarks, to which she responded, 'I think he is not an appropriate HHS secretary.' Kerry Kennedy then listed the misinformed theories her brother has promoted, including vaccine skepticism, HIV not being the cause of AIDS and that people are transgender because of water pollution. 'This is insanity. Just look at the science,' she said. 'This goes on and on and on. I love my brother. I think he's dead wrong.' This article originally appeared on HuffPost.
