Inside the mystery of Jackie Kennedy's pink suit: Blood-soaked ensemble worn by former First Lady on the day JFK was assassinated has NEVER been cleaned - and will sit in windowless, climate-controlled room at a secret location for another 80 YEARS

Jackie wore the two-piece set on the dwindling day in November 1963, when her husband was brutally killed a few inches from her while riding in the back of an open-topped limo in Dallas, Texas together. JFK's blood splatted over the outfit during the deadly shooting and its aftermath, but his devoted widow refused to take it off afterward, but it was said that she wanted his killers to 'know what they'd done.' JFK's death caused global disruption and quickly became engulfed in the events of that day, so it comes as no surprise that the ensemble is now a key component of history. However, what happened to the lawsuit after Jackie finally pulled it off, although it was unclear until the morning after the shooting. Almost no one has set their sights on the now-famous set since the assassination of the late President, and it still has the late President's remains on it, even now, decades later. It's reportedly stored in a climate-controlled vault outside of Washington, Washington, under tight Kennedy family rules that it cannot be seen by the public until at least 2103.

Edie Sedgwick's 91-year-old sister's latest book chronicles the Andy Warhol muse's tragic life

Alice Sedgwick Wohl (inset), 91, has written an unflinching late in life memoir about her sister's luxurious but brutal childhood on a ranch in Santa Barbara and her sister's descent into bulimia and opioid use, which began when she was 13 years old when her father was arrested because she caught him having sex in the family living room with another woman. Sedgwick had spent nine months in a mental hospital where she became pregnant for the first time and had an abortion before she headed to New York and began her brief career as a muse to Andy Warhol. Sedgwick died of a barbiturate overdose at the age of 28 in 1971. Wohl (the eldest of eight Sedgwick siblings) claims she was alienated from her famous sister for the majority of her life. The basis of her latest book, 'As It Turns Out: Thinking About Edie and Andy,' explores the enduring success of her younger sister, who she once regarded as a "vain, shallow, spoiled child doing silly, meaningless stuff.' "I suppose I missed it then,' she says. I missed it in part because I didn't see it.' "I can say for Andy Warhol-all that I didn't have the eyes to see," she says.

On Wednesday, Barack and Michelle Obama returned to the White House and unveiled their formal portraits, which would adorn the executive mansion's walls. 'Barack and Michelle, welcome home!' At the dinner in the East Room, President Joe Biden spoke. 'It's nice to see you again, mother,' Biden said, speaking with Michelle Obama's Marian Robinson, who was seated in the front row.

Several large, formal portraits of presidents and first ladies adorn walls, hallways, and rooms in the White House, and, more traditionally, a former president returns for the unveiling during his successor's tenure. The Obamas (pictured top-right hosting George W. Bush and his wife, Laura), who have been popular since being out of the political spotlight, did not have their wedding reception when Republican President Donald Trump was in office. That means it's been more than a decade since a first-term president has invited his predecessor to attend the occasion. Before winning the election in 2016 and replacing Obama in 2017, Trump (pictured bottom-right at his inauguration in 2017) was a long-serving proponent of the 'birther' campaign, who incorrectly said Obama was not born in the United States.

Former President Donald Trump may have welcomed the Obamas to the White House for the formal event in the spring of 2020 if he had followed tradition. Trump did not do such things.
