Selena Gomez has hit back at a bizarre internet rumour that she had a fling with the grandson of late US president John F. Kennedy.

The singer and actress wasted no time shutting down a fan account’s post claiming she briefly dated John Kennedy Schlossberg four years ago.

“@SelenaGomez and John Kennedy Schlossberg had an affair from 2020 to 2021. The grandson of the U.S. President John Kennedy promised her the White House and she fell for it,” the post read.

In a blunt reply, Gomez wrote, “Never met this human sorry.”

The Instagram account – which is dedicated to Gomez – has since responded to Gomez’s comment, saying, “These rumours are CRAZY. well either way love you gurl.”

Schlossberg, 31, is the son of designer and author Edwin Schlossberg and Caroline Kennedy – the only daughter of JFK and the late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

The former couple were married from 1953 up until his assassination in 1963 before Jacqueline married Greek magnate Aristotle Onassis in 1968. They would divorce seven years later.

The former First Lady never remarried before her death from non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 1994.
