Tatiana Schlossberg, the journalist and author who was a granddaughter of John F. Kennedy, has died after revealing she had been diagnosed with cancer, her family announced Tuesday.

She was 35.

"Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts," the family said in a social media post.

Schlossberg wrote in The New Yorker on Nov. 22 that she had acute myeloid leukemia, with a rare mutation called Inversion 3. She was diagnosed on May 25, 2024, when she gave birth to her second child and a doctor noticed her abnormally high white blood cell count and ordered further tests, she wrote.

She then spent five weeks at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital in New York before beginning chemotherapy at home and later receiving a bone marrow transplant.
