On ABC's Alias, "Julia Thorne" is a mysterious identity (alias) apparently assumed by Sidney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) during a period in her life that has since been suppressed in her memory. Although this character was first introduced at the outset of the third season, the identity of the "real" Julia Thorne is still unresolved. If you Google for ("Julia Thorne" Alias), you get 373 results, including lots of speculation that "Lauren" is in fact the real Julia. On the other hand, if you Google for ("Julia Thorne" heiress), you'll get 244 results, and you'll learn that John Kerry's first wife is Julia Thorne, "a jet-setting heiress with a family fortune of about $300 million," in the words of the New York Times. If you Google for ("Julia Thorne" Alias heiress), you'll get zero results (until this page enters the index, of course.) I would like to propose that the "real" Julia Thorne is, in fact, John Kerry's first wife. You heard it here first. |
