Kerry Kennedy has been vocal about her opinions on her brother Bobby, but her actions have led to netizens commenting about an illness in the family.
Key Takeaways
- Kerry Kennedy is an American lawyer, author, and human rights activist.
- She is the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy and Ethel Skakel Kennedy.
- Kennedy shared a “personal statement” about her family concerning her brother on X, which has become controversial among netizens.
Kerry Kennedy’s Response To Her Brother’s Statement
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had dropped out of the race and joined the Republican nominee, Donald Trump, on stage in Arizona.
Robert went on to endorse the former U.S. President.
In response to her brother’s action, Kerry and her entire family showed much disappointment towards him through a post on X that quoted,
“We want an America filled with hope and bound together by a shared vision of a brighter future, a future defined by individual freedom, economic promise and national pride. We believe in Harris and Walz. Our brother Bobby’s decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. It is a sad ending to a sad story.”

She further captioned the post with,
“I am sharing a personal statement that my family and I have made in response to my brother’s announcement.”

While there may be few who would support her statement, her post was filled with comments from angry citizens who criticized her for supporting the Democratic Party.
One commenter wrote,
“Your bother is asking what he can do for the country.

You are focused on what the country can do for you.
So yes, your dad would absolutely be proud of his son.”
Another wrote against the lawyer’s statement,
“He can endorse who he wants. Freedom of expression is an American value. Your statement is sad and pathetic.”

Moreover, in an interview with MNSBC, Kennedy had been just as expressive of her opinions on her brother’s actions. She said,
“I am disgusted by my brother’s obscene embrace of Donald Trump. And I completely disavow and dissociate myself from Robert Kennedy Jr. and his flagrant efforts to desecrate my father’s memory.”

Again, this statement has caused a whirlwind among most netizens who support Bobby’s decision.
Kerry Kennedy’s Family “Illness”
Some members of the Kennedy family, including Kerry Kennedy, suffer from an illness called spasmodic dysphonia.
Bobby Kennedy has openly discussed this, while the rest of the family has not mentioned it in publicized interviews.
Kerry’s brother revealed that the illness was the reason for his raspy voice.
While the illness has no cure, there are many ways to lessen the impacts of the disease.
The gold standard therapy for spasmodic dysphonia is a Botox injection, which is closest to a permanent Botox injection.
The severity of this condition can go from the patient suffering from respiratory illnesses, acid reflux, and allergies to having cancer.
Amidst the political feud between Kerry and her family with their brother Robert, a netizen brought their illness to the light while making a statement about the ongoing situation.
She wrote,
“Lay off Robert Kennedy Jr. and his vocal condition! He is not the only Kennedy that has the condition, Kerry Kennedy Cuomo also has it and probably others, possibly 4. It can be hereditary or caused by illness, Stop!”

Besides this, RFK Jr. has previously been just as open about a d*ad worm in his brain. He claimed that the parasite had eaten a part of his brain.

- She is the president of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, a non-profit human rights advocacy organization.
