Jack Kennedy Schlossberg, the son of Caroline Kennedy, and grandson of President John F. Kennedy, announced today that he has passed the bar exam. He shared the news via Instagram, along with a photo of him in lower Manhattan on a paddle board as well as a zoomed in screenshot of a certification notice from the State Board of Law Examiners, which appears to read in part, the New York State Board of "Law Examiners congratulates you on passing the New York State bar..." He captioned the image: "TFW passed the bar — Jake, Esq !"
The comment section of the social media post immediately filled with messages from friends and admirers celebrating the good news.
In February 2022, Schlossberg shared that he had graduated from Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School on Instagram, a post which has since been taken down. Today, he did not confirm if this was his first time taking the bar exam; notably, his late uncle John Kennedy Jr. need multiple tries to pass the test.
Additionally, Schlossberg has yet to publicly share any future career plans, though more than a decade ago, he expressed interest in the family business so to speak. "Politics definitely interests me. I’m most interested in public service. I think that’s something that I got from being part of my family, which is such an honor. I haven’t even picked what classes I’m taking this semester yet, so I’m not thinking about a political career right now," he said in 2012.
