Late Kennedy heiress and journalist Tatiana Schlossberg was remembered by family and friends at a private funeral at the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola on the Upper East Side in NYC on Monday.
Schlossberg — who died Dec. 30 at 35 after a battle with acute myeloid leukemia — was mourned by husband George Moran and their two young children, as well as her parents, Caroline Kennedy and Edwin Schlossberg, siblings Jack and Rose, and cousins Kerry Kennedy and Joe Kennedy III, among other family members seen entering the church.
A source tells Page Six that it was a formal Catholic funeral.
“A beautiful family and a beautiful service for a beautiful life,” they told us. “There were lots of hugs.”
We are told the priest gave a eulogy, and we hear brother Jack spoke, as well as other attendees.
Political power players were also in attendance. Former President Joe Biden was seen wiping away a tear as he exited the church, and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former Secretary of State John Kerry, and former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg were also photographed exiting the service.
Designer Carolina Herrera, who created Tatiana’s wedding dress in 2017, and late night icon David Letterman were also seen arriving to pay their respects to the granddaughter of John F. Kennedy.
The church has historical significance for the Kennedy family: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was baptized and confirmed at the church, and it was also the site of her funeral in May 1994.
Tatiana, who was diagnosed in May 2024 immediately after giving birth, wrote about her illness and grueling treatment in a moving essay in the New Yorker in November.
“I had swum a mile in the pool the day before, nine months pregnant. I wasn’t sick. I didn’t feel sick. I was actually one of the healthiest people I knew,” she wrote.
Tatiana credited her husband and family with keeping her company during her hospital stays and helping take care of her son, 3, and 18-month-old daughter.
“My parents and my brother and sister, too, have been raising my children and sitting in my various hospital rooms almost every day for the last year and a half,” she wrote. “They have held my hand unflinchingly while I have suffered, trying not to show their pain and sadness in order to protect me from it. This has been a great gift, even though I feel their pain every day.”
The JFK Library Foundation posted a photo Monday of Schlossberg, looking happy with her husband and kids, with the message, “As we remember Tatiana and celebrate her life, our hearts are with her family and all who loved her.”
The Yale and Oxford grad was an environmental journalist, and was reportedly planning a research project on ocean conservation before being diagnosed.
