The Kennedy family refuses to take 'the debt or responsibility' for the behavior of the quirky only grandson of President John F. Kennedy, Jack Schlossberg, and declares that he is more 'Schlossberg than Kennedy', has told insiders exclusively to DailyMail.com .
The sources say that Jack, who turned 32 last month, grew up with the 'appearance and attitude' of his father, the eccentric and very private -edwin Schlossberg, 73, instead of Jack's beloved mother, Caroline Kennedy, 67, Who was JFK's only daughter, and who never took her husband's name.
The older Schlossberg is a designer and artist was once described as 'Camelot's Egghead-in-Residence' and 'a well-to-do hippie-yuppie that is self-conscious interesting … a Renaissance man without a Renaissance', in a long spy magazine profile.
A progressive millennial-democrat, his son, Jack, has 'an embarrassing earthquake' within the Kennedy family inflamed by regularly appearing on social media, and notorious people, ranging from his second-cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr. , to conservative journalist Megyn Kelly with hateful and bizarre tirades.
But according to a family -insider: 'Members of the Kennedy family, although they are embarrassed by and for Jack, they are determined that they do not feel a guilt or responsibility for his tasty online Shenanigans.

And Jack himself made that distinction.

Schlossberg, 32, who is the only grandson of President John F. Kennedy, has raised eyebrows about his bizarre and controversial presence online
In an Instagram post last November, he compared his physical characteristics with his father, instead of his mother.
“I am my father's Schnoz,” he wrote sarcastically, suggesting that he has more Schlossberg -DNA than Kennedy.
And in response to suggestions that his famous Kennedy deviation has been over played, he stated that he is simply 'a Jew called Schlossberg'.
Most agree that he doesn't look like his handsome grandfather, JFK, or another male Kennedy by the way.
In one Instagram post he also noticed that he did not look like the actors, 'Penn Badgley or Adam Driver', but weird noticed: “I look like Audrey Hepburn.”
Jack's father, Ed Schlossberg, is from a well -to -do but publicly known Jewish merchant navy in New York City in the textile industry.
He married Caroline Kennedy in Our Lady of Victory Roman Catholic Church on Cape Cod on July 19, 1986, after reaching a number of years. The two met while they both worked in the Metropolitan Museum.
“It was like a storyline from a Woody Allen film,” a friend of the couple noted.

As an outsider who married the most famous – and notorious – Clan Ed Schlossberg of America has always avoided to give interviews and has despised publicity about his private life – a characteristic also inherited by his son who avoids the press, but rescuers who express himself controversially online .
However, Jack Schlossberg recently deleted his accounts on X and Instagram after he had demonstrated a series of splashes on social media with Kelly and Dailymail.com columnist Maureen Callahan.
'I'm sorry for everyone I hurt. I was wrong, “he wrote in his last post last week. “I remove all my social media. Forever. It was fun. Thank you everyone. '
Schlossberg tried to explain his messages on social media on a podcast with Jen Psaki from MSNBC.
'I use my judgment to make messages that I think are funny or stupid, but I have a goal to make you think that this man is crazy. “Why is he talking about his own family that way?”
'But to be honest, then you get all these retweets, quotes, and everyone folds over it.
“I think the internet is a place where it is difficult to break through, and it's hard to break through, especially if you don't say something that is controversial, or somehow unexpected,” he added .
In February 2013, when I reported about a story about him, while Jack was a 20-year-old second-year student at Yale, he refused to talk to me, but instead admitted his best friend to act as his spokesperson and my questions to answer. The friend also asked to stay anonymous.
Just like his son, the father of Schlossberg has long been a controversial figure within the Kennedy family, reveals a narrow source.
A sensitive Kennedy Family Issue with ED in the center broke out in the aftermath of the tragic death of Caroline's brother, John F. Kennedy Jr. – who was the best man at Ed and Caroline's wedding – in a 1999 plane crash that also took the lives of his wife Carolyn Bessette and her sister Lauren.

JFK Jr. And Schlossberg in a heated dispute after Schlossberg had inserted itself, uninvited in a project for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington.
Schlossberg wanted to be involved in making a film about the role of President Kennedy in the Arts.
When John Jr. Heard about it, he was furious, a Kennedy friend told me in an interview for my book.
“It was what John could talk about,” the friend remembered.
“He continued about how Ed should have consulted him and wondered if ED should be involved in the project … He saw Ed's involvement in the tribute as poaching.
“The two spruce, which resulted in the cancellation of the project.”
