Rose DeWitt Bukater is a fictional character from the film Titanic (1997). She is not a representation of, nor is she based on any past or present living person. As such she could not have children as she never existed. In the context of the film - she has a grand-daughter who accompanies here to the salvage ship.
Did Jack and Rose from the Titanic have a child? No, Rose married after Jack's death and had a child. Rose's adult granddaughter is with old Rose in the beginning and end of the movie.
After 25 years, James Cameron has admitted that both Jack and Rose could both have survived the sinking of the Titanic in his 1997 cinematic masterpiece, though there were "a lot of variables" in play.
Elizabeth Dawson, also known as Lizzy (born January 5, 1962), is the granddaughter of Rose DeWitt Bukater and Jack Dawson. Her parents are neither seen nor mentioned. She cares for her elderly grandmother while living with her.
Co-hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman conducted their own experiment and concluded that both Jack and Rose could have shared the raft and survived, provided they propped their upper bodies upright and figured out how to attach Rose's life jacket underneath it to increase the buoyancy.
Although Rose changed her name to “Dawson” to honor Jack, used this name during her acting career, and ultimately revealed she never got over Jack, she moved on and got married at some point in her life.
She falls out with her finance during the voyage, and meets Jack Dawson. Once the ship has sunk, she chooses to give her name to the authorities as Rose Dawson: thus there is no Rose DeWitt Bukater recorded on the surviving passenger records.
That is also how pathologists can tell whether a person was drowned or was dead before hitting the water; if you drop a body post-mortem, it would definitely float. This means that if Jack was dead when Rose pushed him under water, then he would have immediately floated back to the surface.
Were Jack and Rose based on real people? No. Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater, portrayed in the movie by Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, are almost entirely fictional characters (James Cameron modeled the character of Rose after American artist Beatrice Wood, who had no connection to Titanic history).
The body of an adult male, whose personal identification revealed he was "J. Dawson," was found at sea after Titanic sank. Bodies were numbered in the order they were recovered. Dawson's body was number 227.
He would be as good as dead anyway by the time he'd swum under the raft in 28-degree (Fahrenheit) waters and tied the lifejacket into place. Moreover, since Rose would have to get off the raft and wait in the water while he did that, she'd probably die of hypothermia as well.
“Yes, he could have held on until the lifeboat arrived. Jack could have survived, but there are so many variables. I think Jack's logic was, 'I'm not going to do anything that would put Rose in danger. ' And that's totally in keeping with the character,” concludes James Cameron.
However a new test has led Canadian researchers to say the baby was in fact Sidney Leslie Goodwin. The British boy was on the cruise liner with the rest of his family. They had planned to start a new life in America. A further test revealed the child's mitochondria DNA molecule did not match the Panula family.
Madeleine Astor, then five months pregnant, boarded the Titanic as a first-class passenger in Cherbourg, France, with her husband; her husband's valet, Victor Robbins; her maid, Rosalie Bidois; and her nurse, Caroline Endres.
“I chipped a small bone in my elbow,” Winslet said, “And at one point I had deep bruises all over my arms. I looked like a battered wife. I just slipped on the deck.” She also details long shooting days, some that lasted as long as twenty hours, with the majority of that filming taking place at night.
The show went into full detail, pronouncing Jack dead in the freezing water at 51 minutes if he hadn't tried to get on the board. But the hosts said if he had tried the maneuver with the vest, he could have lived.
If Rose, at this point, gave Jack her life jacket while they're both balancing on the raft, with only their lower legs underwater, they could have lasted a few hours and survived.
And when the Titanic hits an iceberg and sinks to the bottom of the ocean, Jack performs one final act of love: He helps Rose onto a floating wooden board—and remains in the freezing water beside her. Rose makes it. Jack doesn't. Over the past 25 years, the gesture has racked up a whole lot of skepticism.
(at around 1h 25 mins) Although her fingers partially obscure it, the coin that Rose pays to Jack is generally agreed to be a Barber dime, minted 1892-1916, not a modern dime, as some viewers have incorrectly asserted.
Why do Jack and Rose say each other's name so much?
In the film, Rose represents hope, freedom, and a chance for a better life. By repeating her name, Jack not only expresses his affection but also reinforces his belief in their connection, despite the societal barriers that separate them.
In the final scene of the movie, Rose, who has lived a long and fulfilling life, returns to the site of the wreck and drops the diamond into the ocean, symbolically letting go of the materialistic values that had constrained her earlier in life and embracing the memories of the love and experiences that had shaped her.
He was however abusive both physically, emotionally, and psychologically. He was also extremely arrogant and snobbish, and an attempted murderer when it became publicly obvious that Rose was in love with Jack and not him. He is 30 years old at the time of the sinking of the Titanic.
What was the age difference between Jack and Rose?
However, it is worth noting that some sources suggest Jack could have been as young as 17 or as old as 22. On the other hand, Rose DeWitt Bukater was portrayed as a young woman from a wealthy family. Her age is stated in the movie as 17 years old.
