The Secret Love Child

[Blind Gossip] Whenever the anniversary of a significant event rolls around, the conspiracy theorists start revving up the rumors again!

In the case of this political celebrity, the rumor involves an affair and a love child!

He was fighting a lot with his wife and was very unhappy in his marriage, so he was having an affair. They were together in a hotel right before he died. She gave birth to their child. The mother and child are considering going public this year.

We did a little research and the child’s age seems off by a few months, so we don’t know how they are going to get around that pesky little fact.

We also don’t know what the woman and her child are looking for. Fame? His name? His money? Maybe all of the above?

    baby is cute – just want to hug and kiss him all day.

    Have no clue who this is – waiting to hear what everyone else says.

  2. PinkFlamingo says

    JFK?

    I would be very surprised if he didn’t have several love children out there.

  3. missMena says

    I don’t know if I call him a politicial, maybe so- I could be off, but MLK Jr always seems to have someone mention affairs and a possible love child. I think the anniversary of his assisination is in April?

  5. wendybar says

    Has to be a Kennedy. I’ll say John Jr since the anniversary of his death is coming up.

  6. lindseyann says

    Man: Martin Luther King Jr
    The date of his assasination is April 4th – a little over a week away.

    Clue: “revving up” – he was a minister.

    Martin Luther King, Jr?

    It’s quite possible he has a love child. If he does, it would be nice for the child to know. Even good people make bad choices. It doesn’t have to ruin their legacy.

  12. taupeantlers says

    The only dead political figure I can think of with a significant anniversary coming up is MLK, Jr.

    • Bunniest says

      Same here.

      Atlanta was a very small town back then, black Atlanta was even small. If he’d had a love child pretty much all of black Atlanta would have known about it and the mom and child would have been outed decades ago.

    • Bunniest says

      I googled it. It’s most definitely MLK.

      FBI files were declassified in 2017 and stated he had a love child that resembled him “to a great degree” and he took care of this child. Seriously doubting Coretta continued to pay the mom after MLK’s death. Then again, they’re psychotic about his name, maybe they did pony up support all these years.

  14. athena says

    Maybe Martin Luther King, Jr? He was assassinated on April 4 and that date is coming up.
    Follow up question-I’m surprised that more politicians and celebrities don’t have a “love child” stories out there!

  22. torrey says

    MLK is the only dead political celebrity with an anniversary coming up I can think of. Plus, he was shot at a motel.

  26. High Steppa says

    I’m guessing RFK who was murdered in the Ambassador Hotel. I wouldn’t doubt it a bit – it seemed that affairs didn’t bother the Kennedy men.

  27. charlene2345 says

    Man: JFK Jr. It’s the 20th anniversary of his death, coming up soon, and there have always been rumors that he and his wife were very unhappily married and even planning to divorce.

    Optional: Maybe.

  28. anarchistlibrarian says

    heh, my first thought was “john john” kennedy, but he died in late july/early august (i only remember that because i was due to give birth then and was glued to cnn!)

  30. jj the great says

    At first I was thinking maybe JFK Junior- just bc he died younger (even though he’s not technically a politician but I think he was “in” enough to be considered “political”) but then I remembered he died in mid July. Pres JFK died in November, & John McCain/Bush we’re very elder when they passed (not that it’s impossible). Billy Boy is still alive, though he’d otherwise be in contention lol. Literally stumped bc of the “anniversary” coming up.

    • jj the great says

      Omg- just remembered JFK Junior died in July 1999. Meaning this July is 20 years since he passed. That’s easily my best guess. But I still don’t feel good about it, honestly. Can’t wait to see other guesses.

  32. Baileygirl says

    The only politician I can think of who died recently is John McCain. I have never heard about any marital unhappiness with him and I doubt he was in a hotel room having an affair before he died. I don’t think that he has a love child out there. Of course, there is always Ted Kennedy who fills the bill for having an affair but he was pretty sick with brain cancer so that is probably a no to having an affair and a love child.

  33. spoofbyrd says

    At first I misread & it said political celebrity not politician and then Luke Perry came to mind but was he political ? I had to research and from what I read he wasn’t boisterous about it like Stephen King, Alec Baldwin , or Robert Denison but I guess he was somewhat political . So I will go with him

  34. DDivaB says

    OMG is this JFKJR???
    Is there a male heir to Camelot our there??
    John -John and I are the same age. My very first memory is watching him salute his daddy’s casket on our old black and white tv.
    I saw him once in Central Park on his skates with his shirt hanging out of the back pocket of his shorts- I nearly fainted.
    I cried when he died.
    His child would be the Messiah.

  39. cherylp says

    JFK Jr’s death is coming up to the 20th anniversary. There’s also long been rumors that he has a secret child whom he fathered with the daughter of an Italian aristocrat. From what I read though, she claims they had an ongoing affair from 1998 until his death and he knew she was pregnant. Unless the baby was born 10 months after his death, it’s plausible that it’s his.

  40. spoofbyrd says

    Damn I am bad and getting dumb. Reading the item again it said anniversary and JFK jr is a good guess ! He did have marital discord and may have strayed . It was also stated that his wife had a few hookups with a former lover during this tumultuous marriage. Their tragic ending is almost storybook symbolic . Anyway as stated on BG, celebrities having out of wedlock children either when they are single or married is not uncommon

  42. deering says

    Doubt it’s MLK Jr. He had very little money when he died, and it’s unlikely the kids have racked up a fortune from his legacy.

  44. iamastar1963 says

    This is Prince Charles having fathered an illicit Male child with ugly-faced Camilla before they were married!
