Adaptation of J. Randy Taraborrelli's book about the Kennedy wives, Jackie, Ethel and Joan. The story reveals how the lives of these three women were transformed by marriage to sons of patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy. Jackie, Ethel and Joan Kennedy related to each other like blood sisters -- sometimes loving, sometimes contentious. The miniseries begins in a hopeful moment of time in the early 1960s, fondly known as "The Camelot Years," and continues through 1980, when Ted Kennedy became the last of his family's male brood to contend for the presidency.
