During the recent presidential election, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. drew attention for his challenging of President Biden, first in the Democratic primary and later as an independent candidate. His critical stance towards Biden on the campaign trail, as well as his subsequent endorsement of former President Donald Trump, sparked controversy within the Kennedy family. Kerry Kennedy and other siblings openly expressed their disapproval of Robert's political choices.

In her social media post accompanying the photo, Kerry Kennedy expressed love and longing for her late mother, writing, 'We love and miss you, Mum.' The post served as a touching tribute to Ethel Kennedy and highlighted the enduring bond shared by the Kennedy family despite their political differences.
