May 2012

I read that her 2 oldest children were away at boarding schools and the 2 youngest were with RFK Jr in Los Angeles where he was currently living and dating Cheryl Hines (of the Larry David show).

A close friend reportedly said that Mary was hoping for a reconciliation but when photos of her Ex with a celebrity kept surfacing, it aggravated her depression.

Ok - she was in a depressive state and because of this was probably inclined to drink and NO ONE was there to console her. All four kids were out of her present life and her husband was sleeping with another woman and a celebrity at that with photos of the 2 of them all over the internet- SHIT that just sucks - I can almost see where she just gave up. EVERYONE ABANDONED HER.

IT IS SO VERY SAD!!!
