Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s daughters rang in the new year in Hyannis Port with their mother, Kerry Kennedy, 62.
Kerry, the seventh child of former senator and US Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and Ethel Kennedy, shared a family photo on December 27, telling followers: ‘Happy new year from our family to yours!’
She and her daughters — Michaela Kennedy Cuomo, 24, and twins Mariah and Cara Kennedy Cuomo, 26 — smiled and dressed up for the shot, which was snapped along the water.

The women appear to have spent much of the Christmas and New Year’s break together.
Other photos show Mariah enjoying dinner and a glass of wine with a friend by a roaring fire, which was decorated with ornaments and stockings.
In another snap shared by Michaela Kerry posed along side her mother Ethel, 93. Both were in the full Christmas spirit, with Ethel wearing a red sweater topped with a sparkly white cardigan that has been affixed with a ‘ho, ho, ho’ pin.
Kerry, meanwhile, wore a red and white Santa-themed top with cold shoulder cut-outs and peppermint decorations on the front.
On New Year’s Eve, several of the family members came together to celebrate 2022.
Though Mariah’s boyfriend, Tellef Lundevall, has been with her at the Kennedy compound over Fourth of July weekend this year, he didn’t appear to join the family for New Year’s.
Mariah posed alongside her grandmother, Ethel, both wearing ‘Happy New Year’ crowns.
They were joined for another photo by Mariah’s mom Kerry and Kerry’s sister Courtney Kennedy Hill, 65.

Courtney’s daughter Saoirse Kennedy Hill died at age 22 in August of 2019 from an accidental drug and alcohol overdose.
All of the festivities appear to have taken place at the Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts.
Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr. and his wife Rose bought the first property there in 1928. Their son, former President John F. Kennedy, purchased a home nearby in 1956, and former Senator Ted Kennedy also bought a home there in 1959.
Michaela and Cara had also joined their mother earlier in the month at the 2021 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award Gala in New York City.
The event was attended by celebrities, including Alec Baldwin and his wife, Hilaria.
While the Kennedy Cuomo daughters were in Massachusetts with their mother and grandmother, it’s unknown how their father spent the holidays.
On December 21, he shared a virtual holiday card on Instagram, including a photo of himself with his mother and three daughters.

‘Wishing New York health, happiness, peace, progress, and justice this Holiday Season and throughout the coming year,’ he wrote. ‘ Thank you for your support and friendship, from our family to yours.’
Cuomo, 63, resigned from office in August after investigators working for New York Attorney General Letitia James authored a report concluding he had sexually harassed 11 women.
Cuomo has denied the allegations.
When women began to come forward earlier this year, Cuomo’s daughters Mariah and Michaela retweeted a tweet by Billy Baldwin in which he defended the governor’s legacy.
‘I have known the entire Cuomo family since the 1980s. I have tremendous respect & admiration for every single one of them,’ read Baldwin’s tweet.
‘Don’t you think, after 40 years as a New York public servant, he deserves and has earned the right to an investigation before everybody rushes to judgment?’
The ex-governor has been hit with a charge of forcible touching relating to the allegation of Brittany Commisso, a former aide who claimed Cuomo groped her breast in the office of the Executive Mansion in Albany in December 2020.

The complaint, which was signed by an investigator from the Albany County Sheriff’s Office, alleges that the former governor ‘intentionally, and for no legitimate purpose, forcibly place his hand under the blouse shirt of the victim and onto her intimate body part.’
Commisso’s claim was the most serious of all of the allegations listed in James’ report, which Cuomo has maintained was a hit-job by James to get him out of her way.
‘From the moment my office received the referral to investigate allegations that former Governor Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed multiple women, we proceeded without fear or favor,’ James’ office said in a statement.
‘The criminal charges brought today against Mr. Cuomo for forcible touching further validate the findings in our report.’
If convicted, Cuomo could face up to one year in prison.
Despite the charges filed against him, Cuomo is considering running for political rival James’ attorney general post, sources said.
He held the position from 2007 to 2010 before becoming governor and now sources close to the politician told the New York Post he could run for the position in 2022.
‘People in Cuomo’s orbit are tossing it out there,’ a person close to Cuomo told the New York Post. ‘They’re floating [the idea].’
