DEVASTATED by the sudden death of her young drug-addicted cousin, Caroline Kennedy called off plans to end her strained marriage — and is working to rebuild her love life! Sources say the shocking overdose of 22-year-old Saoirse Kennedy Hill was a sobering slap for Caroline, 61, and hubby Ed Schlossberg, 74, who — amid desperate pleas from their three kids — are getting back together after decades of living separate lives. “It was a cruel wake-up call that left the family shattered,” a Kennedy insider spills. “They were first stunned silent with grief.

brando squealed on pervy jackson!

MARLON BRANDO ratted out Michael Jackson, telling L.A. prosecutors he thought the Moonwalker “may have had something to do with kids!” The long-buried bombshell emerged last month, on what would have been the hitmaker’s 61st birthday, after a transcript of Brando’s testimony to investigators was unearthed. The late Godfather star was a close pal of the King of Pop and a frequent guest at his Neverland Ranch. Jackson was accused of abusing a 13-year-old boy in 1993 and later acquitted. But sources say Brando confronted the Billie Jean singer about the charges — and reported his fears to authorities. The transcript reveals Brando told investigators in 1994, “I think it’s pretty reasonable to conclude that he may have had something to do with kids.”…
