"You want to announce that you plan to marry this young lady, but let’s face it. 
That won’t be happening.” 
NAME: Senator Ted Kennedy
ROLE: John's uncle who disapproves of his relationship with Abby...and stops at nothing to come between them.
HE MET ABBY... At the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, 1982, when John and Abby announced their engagement. 

(I've Loved These Days, Book 1 in The Abigail Phelps Series, Chapter 13 - "When In Rome")
FIRST IMPRESSIONS: "I hated him. I hated Ted Kennedy right then and there, and it was a hate that never went away. Twenty years later that man was still doing all he could to ruin my life."

ROMANTIC CONNECTION: Umm...no.
IN JOHN'S WORDS: “Listen to me, Abby. I will not let him hurt you. He won’t touch you, do you understand me? And he won’t touch us. Do you hear what I’m telling you? You just breathe, beautiful girl, and hold on to me. He won’t ever come between us again. I love you. He will not win.”

IN TED'S WORDS: “I’ve seen that you and my nephew have been spending time together again, and it doesn’t surprise me that he wanted you here...I’ve tolerated your friendship with my nephew because it hasn’t seemed to do anyone any harm. And because you are fairly safe now, since you are married and have a child, although we both know, of course, that those two facts aren’t all that related...I don’t care what you do in your free time, or with whom you do it. As long as it’s not my nephew, that is”

IN ABBY'S WORDS: "He hadn’t been able to kill me in the plane, so he was going to kill me in the car. I was sure of it. And I was okay with that. I didn’t think that life could ever get darker than it was at that time, and I was done. I was tired of running from Ted, living in fear. It was inevitable. He would kill me eventually, and I was ready to get it over with."
