Where To Watch Love Story: JFK Jr. And Carolyn Bessette In India

Streaming platforms, episode schedule and the latest update on its India release

By Aditi Tarafdar | LAST UPDATED: FEB 22, 2026

The internet has already made up its mind about Love Story: JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. Before India even gets a release date, clips from the Ryan Murphy series are circulating across Instagram feeds and X timelines, dissected frame by frame for tailoring, tension and tabloid nostalgia.

Based on Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy by Elizabeth Beller, the nine-episode limited series reimagines one of America’s most mythologised couples for a generation raised on paparazzi culture but unfamiliar with its analog origins. Created by Ryan Murphy, the show stars Paul Anthony Kelly as John F. Kennedy Jr. and Sarah Pidgeon as Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. Early viewers have already crowned it the year’s most feverishly discussed romance, and not without reason. The production leans heavily into late-’90s Manhattan polish: razor-sharp coats, minimalist slip dresses, society galas under flashbulb glare. Beneath the aesthetic precision sits a larger meditation on fame, inheritance and the suffocating weight of a last name like Kennedy

Where can you watch Love Story right now?

In the United States, the series premiered on FX, with episodes dropping on Hulu shortly after their television broadcast. Internationally, it has rolled out across regions on Disney+, though availability varies by territory.

As of now, the show is not streaming in India on any official platform. There has been no confirmed Indian premiere date. Only the first four episodes have been released so far, with the remaining instalments of the nine-episode arc scheduled to drop weekly every Thursday in markets where the show is live. Indian viewers scanning OTT libraries will have to wait for an official announcement from Disney+ or a licensing update. If social media impatience counted as distribution leverage, it could land soon.

What is the series about?

The romance between John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy has long functioned as modern American folklore: Camelot’s heir meets Calvin Klein publicist, Manhattan becomes their stage, tragedy seals the myth. The show traces their first encounters in New York’s elite social circuit, their secret wedding, and the relentless media scrutiny that followed.

More than a love story, the series studies what happens when two individuals become a national fixation. Carolyn’s evolution into a minimalist fashion icon unfolds under constant surveillance, while JFK Jr. wrestles with expectations attached to being the son of John F. Kennedy. The narrative also revisits the 1999 plane crash that ended their lives, a catastrophe that froze their image in collective memory at the height of their allure.

For now, Indian audiences are left with grainy reposts and spoiler-laced threads. Until an official India release is confirmed, Love Story: JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette remains a cultural export watched from afar, building hype faster than any marketing campaign could have engineered.
