As a serious history buff (if you count obsessively following The Real Housewives and summoning vague facts from senior year AP History for weekly trivia which I obviously do), I was particularly intrigued by John F. Kennedy’s grandson going viral. There are already about a million and one Kennedys out there to keep track of, but one under 50 going viral on the internet for shirtless front-facing camera rants is a little more my speed.
Jack Schlossberg’s intentionally chaotic videos trending instantly raised a handful of very pressing questions: is this man going to run for president one day? Does he call RHONY legend Carole Radziwill Auntie Carole? Is he classically trained in the caricature-ish accents from his videos that are low-key getting him in trouble (because they’re actually pretty spot on vocally)? I was able to round up some of these burning questions to make you appear both chronically online and politically informed for your next dinner party. Here’s everything about John F. Kennedy’s grandson Jack Schlossberg.
How is Jack Schlossberg related to President John F. Kennedy?
Okay, let’s break down the family tree. Jack Schlossberg AKA John Bouvier Kennedy Schlossberg is the grandson of John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States. His mother Caroline Kennedy (JFK and Jackie O’s second child) is the U.S. ambassador to Australia, and his father is esteemed artist/designer Edwin Schlossberg. Jack also shares a double-take-worthy resemblance to his late uncle John F. Kennedy Jr. (John John, if you’re nasty) which has only increased the obsession with watching his every bizarre move online. Jack is a card-carrying Democrat who has been singing Joe Biden’s praises (honestly huge win for Joey B’s party which is more often clowned by liberals under 40 online) while calling out his cousin, Robert Kennedy, Jr. (AKA RFK Jr.) who is currently campaigning for President as an independent candidate. In a TV interview with his mother back in 2017, Jack advised people to “stay tuned” about his own potential political future.
How old is Jack Schlossberg?
Jack was born on January 19, 1993, which makes him currently 31 years old. (You’re welcome for saving you from doing math.)
What does Jack Schlossberg do?
Jack graduated from Yale, Harvard Law School, and Harvard Business School. He is an aspiring actor who has been auditioning, according to his conversation with Town & Country, so perhaps we’ll see him on the big screen soon! Maybe that explains the frequent impressions? But also, let’s be real, his resume is kind of just his bone structure. But nepo baby police need not worry, Jack is more than just a generationally pretty face — he also passed the NY state bar with flying colors on his first try so he’s currently capable of practicing law. That is if he can find time between writing his first book about his “method and how [he sees] the world” which we can assume is pretty unique if TikTok has shown us anything thus far.
More importantly…
Who is Jack Schlossberg’s girlfriend?

Jack previously dated Krissy Jones, founder of Sky Ting yoga studio back in 2019. He did not date Selena Gomez (who is currently locked down with Benny Blanco), prior to contrary belief. He hasn’t shared whether or not he’s still single rn, so NYC ladies you have clearance to shoot your shot. We saw what the man can do to a coconut with his bare hands.
Why do people care about Jack Schlossberg’s social media presence?

Real answer? He’s weird, quirky, hot, and rich. People have always been obsessed with the Kennedys and Camelot, but Jack’s videos feel like one very extended inside joke that he’s sharing with the world. In a feed full of dudes posting fishing selfies, his content is too fascinating to look away from. Jack appears to be totally in on the joke, and also well aware of the outrage some of his impressions are causing. Yet continues posting because he finds it fun and fulfilling. I mean, we did say men should get hobbies right?
