- she was married to Republican Sen. John Heinz of Pennsylvania before he died in a plane crash in 1991
- her and Kerry married in 1995 - she has 3 sons, he has 2 daughters (it's nearly the brady bunch
)
- she took her husbands name (Kerry) only when he entered the presidential race (as did the wives of Bill Clinton & Howard Dean)

I wonder if the people of Monaco had a problem with Grace Kelly becoming princess or if the people of Jordan had a problem with Queen Noor (she is an amazing woman)
