New details have surfaced about the night John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette perished in a 1999 plane crash off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard with JFK’s only son at the controls.

During a two-hour television special on HLN titled How It Really Happened: JFK Jr.’s Tragic Final Flight, Carole Radziwill opens up on the conversations she had with Carolyn, her best friend, just before the plane took flight. She was supposed to meet Carolyn and John Jr. after the couple landed.

“Carolyn called me from the plane right before they were taking off,” Radziwill reveals. “And I think it was probably a little bit after eight o’ clock. I don’t remember anything really important from that conversation. I didn’t certainly think it would be the last time I would speak to my friend. I remember at the end she said, you know, ‘I love you.’ And for some reason, I didn’t say I love you back. And that always stuck with me. And then she said ‘I’ll call you when we land.’” And then that was the last I ever heard from her.”

JFK Jr.’s Tragic Final Flight will premiere on HLN at 9 p.m. ET on March 10. In the meantime, discover more details here.
