Tatiana Schlossberg, JFK's Granddaughter, Dies After Battling Rare Leukemia

Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of former US President John F. Kennedy, passed away at the age of 35 after being diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. Her death was announced by her family in a statement shared by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. 'Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts,' the family said. Schlossberg, a climate crisis and environmental journalist, was the second child of Caroline Kennedy, a former US diplomat, and designer Edwin Schlossberg. In an essay published in November in The New Yorker, she revealed her diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia with a rare mutation. She also criticized her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his vaccine skepticism and cuts to cancer research funding.
