Jackie: Behind Closed Doors on REELZ Channel
I have always admired Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the former first lady of the United States. Although her tenure in the White House was before my time, she was definitely someone I looked up to while growing up. With her pillbox hat, dark sunglasses and breathy voice, Jackie Kennedy Onassis was an icon for her style, elegance, and grace. She lived a complex and very private life, married a president and a Greek shipping magnate, and her story is one of glamour and courage.
I will always remember her as someone who is intensely private although she raised very public children and had a very public story. I always found it hard to imagine being in her shoes. I cannot imagine living constantly in the public while craving privacy at the same time. She lived a lot during her 65 years and although she has been gone for over 20 years, she is still a beloved American icon.
This weekend REELZ is debuting a documentary about Jacqueline Onassis Kennedy and I cannot wait to watch it. In fact, I already have my DVR set to record so I can watch it as it airs and then watch it again later.
JACKIE: BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
REELZ is airing a riveting two-hour documentary, Jackie: Behind Closed Doors hosted by NBC News’ Natalie Morales on November 7th at 9PM ET and again at 11 PM ET. REELZ Channel’s Jackie: Behind Closed Doors documentary covers every aspect of her life, from her early childhood to her too early death from cancer. They’ve sourced rarely seen family footage and the documentary features commentary with those who knew her best.
November 22, 1963 was one of the darkest days in our nation’s history when a lone gunman shot President John F. Kennedy. Jackie, riding in the motorcade, clung to her husband’s lifeless body. Jackie’s story is an incredible one of survival and fortitude. After bearing witness to her husband’s assassination, Jackie withdrew from the public eye to focus on raising her two children, before marrying Aristotle Onassis. Her silence made her an object of endless curiosity. Only now are we beginning to understand this complex woman who made an indelible mark on American history based on stories and footage that has become available.
The strength of Jackie O is one of the most appealing things about her. She didn't have an easy upbringing nor did she have an easy life. However she persevered through it all and is one of the most famous Americans.

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER MOST ABOUT JACKIE O?
My Nana absolutely ADORES her. I think she meant something totally different to people who were alive when she was first lady.
Jackie O is such an icon. I would love to learn more about her and will be checking this out for sure.
Jackie O was such a classy lady. I’ve got to watch this documentary. I’ll have to look into REELZ, as well.
She always seem like she was very classy. She held herself well and she always seem poised and giving. I don’t actually know much about her, I will have to check this out.
I will always remember her elegant style. I didn’t really know much of her because I was younger. But her style will always be something I remember she was a real classy, and well dressed lady.
She seemed to be a classy lady for sure. I’d love to check this out and learn more about her!
I honestly don’t know anything about her. I’m pretty sure my mother liked her though. I do recognize the name. She seemed to be very classy.
She seemed like a strong and supportive woman. That she raised her children in the public eye she was still able to maintain some privacy.
I can’t wait to learn more about her. She was such an important figure and she went through a lot!
My Mom has always had a fascination with Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. I will have to watch this with her. She is going to love it.
Well, I think I am like most Americans who just know her for her sense of style and grace. I wasn’t around during the Kennedy era, but I am still facinated with her.
I will have to watch The Kennedy Files on REELZ Channel. This sounds like it will be so interesting. I remember her great sense of style.
This sounds like a not to miss show. I will have to try and catch it this weekend!
I’ve always thought that since Jackie Kennedy’s days in the White House none of us have seen any other First Lady who even comes close to her public persona of elegance, self confidence and grace. This program sounds like the best ever on her life and why to this day, despite her passing, many of us are still intrigued and inspired by this great woman.
She is a wonderful icon! It would be great to see how things were behind the doors for the Kennedy family.
In the days before the internet, it wasn’t as easy to get information on first ladies! I’m glad we’ll get to see an in-depth look at her life!
I wish I knew more about her. She is so intriguing!
