I haven't checked in detail, but I can see that recent edits include unreliable sources such as WP:RSPHISTORY. These revisions may need to be reverted or the article may lose its featured article status in the future if this continues. ภץאคгöร09:15, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello all, I appreciate the work on removing excessive images on the main article here, but I want to discuss that some of the images removed I disagree with. Can I kindly request that we can all agree on which images should be kept in the article and which images should be removed? Thanks. PEPSI697 (💬 • 📝) 07:12, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

In the early 1960s, rumors of a secret relationship between Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe and President John F. Kennedy swirled behind the glamorous façade of the era. Their brief encounters were kept far from the public eye, but close friends and confidants hinted at a deep connection.
One evening, after a discreet meeting in 1961, Kennedy surprised Monroe with a gift—an elegant black 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190SL. The car, with its pristine white interior, was a symbol of the President’s admiration for the actress. Marilyn was said to be thrilled by the luxurious gesture, a token of affection from one of the most powerful men in the world.
However, as a lover of the spotlight and a fan of personalization, Marilyn had the car repainted white, reflecting her iconic sense of style. The car became one of her prized possessions, a secret memento of her connection with Kennedy. Sadly, their love affair remained hidden in the shadows, and after Marilyn’s untimely death in 1962, her half-sister, Berniece Baker Miracle, quietly inherited the 190SL.
Berniece, living far from the Hollywood spotlight, chose to keep the car in her garage for the next 60 years, a private reminder of her famous sister and the enigmatic relationship she had with one of America's most beloved presidents.
