It was only a matter of time before Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessettedrew a line between the central couple and Princess Diana. In the penultimate episode of the Ryan Murphy-produced FX series, the feverish tabloid similarities snap into focus when Carolyn (Sarah Pidgeon) turns on the TV to see news of a car crash in Paris.
A couple of stray lines serve as a harbinger of the horror unfolding in the French capital even before the news reports reveal why Carolyn’s sister Lauren (Sydney Lemmon) has called in a panic.
As soon as John (Paul Anthony Kelly) mentions the day is August 30, my ears pricked up. Even more so when Carolyn notes the next year is 1998.
