At the funeral of Ethel Kennedy in Washington, D.C., former President Bill Clinton delivered a controversial eulogy, describing her as the 'cat’s meow' and recalling her innocent flirtations with him. His remarks drew both laughter and raised eyebrows, especially as he joked about her large family, noting the need for more people like her given contemporary political climates. Clinton was one of three U.S. presidents speaking at the service, alongside Barack Obama and Joe Biden, who praised Ethel's contributions to social justice and her vibrant spirit. Ethel Kennedy, who passed away at 96, was the widow of Robert F. Kennedy and is survived by nine children, 34 grandchildren, and 24 great-grandchildren. The funeral drew a significant political crowd, though former Presidents Trump and Bush were notably absent. Clinton’s light-hearted comments have sparked mixed reactions regarding appropriateness at such a solemn occasion.
