Caroline Kennedy holds granddaughter at Tatiana Schlossberg's funeral

Caroline Kennedy clutched her granddaughter tightly as she attended the funeral of her daughter, Tatiana Schlossberg, who passed away at the age of 35 due to blood cancer.

George Moran, Tatiana’s husband of 36 years, was seen carrying their son during the service held at the Church of St Ignatius Loyola on Monday.

Tatiana’s brother, Jack Schlossberg, aged 32, appeared visibly heartbroken while attending the New York funeral alongside their mother, father Edwin Schlossberg, and older sister Rose.

The environmental journalist tragically succumbed to leukemia last Tuesday, a mere six weeks after publicly disclosing her diagnosis.

Tatiana and Moran, who tied the knot in 2017, were the proud parents of two children: a three-year-old son named Edwin and a one-year-old daughter, Josephine.

On Monday, the JFK Library Foundation posted a photo of the young family taken just three months before Tatiana’s death.

Tatiana was seen smiling with short hair while sitting in a garden surrounded by her husband, young children and pet dog on Martha’s Vineyard.

The photo was captioned: ‘As we remember Tatiana and celebrate her life, our hearts are with her family and all who loved her.’

In November, Tatiana revealed in a candid essay for The New Yorker – published on the 62nd anniversary of her grandfather’s assassination – that the cancer was discovered after she gave birth to Josephine. 

In the piece, Tatiana praised Moran for his support throughout her treatment, writing: ‘George did everything for me that he possibly could.

‘He talked to all the doctors and insurance people that I didn’t want to talk to; he slept on the floor of the hospital; he didn’t get mad when I was raging on steroids and yelled at him that I did not like Schweppes ginger ale, only Canada Dry.

‘He would go home to put our kids to bed and come back to bring me dinner. I know that not everyone can be married to a doctor, but if you can, it’s a very good idea. 

‘He is perfect, and I feel so cheated and so sad that I don’t get to keep living the wonderful life I had with this kind, funny, handsome genius I managed to find.’

Tatiana was the daughter of former US Ambassador Caroline, JFK’s only surviving child, and designer Schlossberg. 

She studied at Yale for her undergraduate degree, where she met her future husband, Moran, now an attending urologist at Columbia University.

Tatiana later earned a master’s degree in United States history from Oxford University and pursued a career as a journalist.

The couple married in 2017 at the Kennedy compound on Martha’s Vineyard, with former Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick officiating the ceremony.

They lived in a $7.68 million apartment in New York City’s Upper East Side, but in her New Yorker essay, she revealed she spent much of the last year of her life in and out of the hospital. 

Tatiana’s cousin, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F Kennedy Jr, was notably absent from the service.

Tatiana referred to RFK Jr as the family ’embarrassment’ in a column just before her death.

A source told Rob Shuter’s Naughty But Nice that her funeral was being kept to immediate family and close friends – which would not include RFK Jr.

‘RFK Jr will not be invited, and the family made that decision intentionally. They are trying to shield the kids and manage their grief without extra public scrutiny or controversy,’ the source said.
