Conor Kennedy is a member of the famed Kennedy family, most well-known for both President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert F. Kennedy—two of the most famous American politicians of the 20th Century. While it doesn’t seem that Conor will follow in his family’s footsteps and pursue a career in politics, he’s still managed to make a name for himself as a fashionable socialite.

Conor made headlines in 2012 when he started dating popstar Taylor Swift. Even though he and the ‘1989’ singer have long since split, fans have speculated as to whether he was inspiration for some of Taylor’s biggest hits, including “Begin Again.”

Despite mostly staying out of the spotlight since he and Taylor called it a day, Conor went public for the first time with new girlfriend, model Ava Dash, whose parents are music executive Damon Dash and designer Rachel Roy, in 2021.
