As Tatiana Schlossberg underwent stem cell treatment for her terminal cancer battle, her siblings leapt into action to help.
“My sister had turned out to be a match and would donate her stem cells,” Tatiana, 35, wrote in a New Yorker essay published Saturday, November 22, referring to older sister Rose Schlossberg. “My brother [Jack Schlossberg] was a half-match, but he still asked every doctor if maybe a half-match was better, just in case.”
The Schlossberg siblings are the three children of Caroline Kennedy — the daughter of the late John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onaissis — and Edwin Schlossberg.
Tatiana discovered that she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in 2024 shortly after giving birth to her second child. (Tatiana and husband George Moran welcomed a son in 2022 and a daughter in 2024.)
Caroline Kennedy’s Daughter Tatiana, 35, Diagnosed With Terminal Cancer
After consulting her physicians, Tatiana learned that she had a rare mutation in her blood cells and was subsequently given a year to live.
“I could not be cured by a standard course of treatment. I would need a few months, at least, of chemotherapy, which would aim to reduce the number of blast cells in my bone marrow,” she explained in her “A Battle With My Blood” essay for The New Yorker. “Then, I would need a bone-marrow transplant, which could cure me. After the transplant, I would probably need more chemotherapy, on a regular basis, to try to prevent the cancer from returning.”
Tatiana also underwent a couple of clinical trials, in addition to the stem cell treatment using Rose’s donation.
“My sister held her arms straight for hours as the doctors drained blood from one, scooped out and froze her stem cells, and pumped the blood back in the other,” Tatiana recalled of Rose’s procedure. “The cells smelled like canned tomato soup. When the transfusion began, I sneezed twelve times and threw up.”
She added, “Then I waited — for my blood counts to recover, for my sister’s cells to heal and change my body. We wondered if I would get her banana allergy or her personality. My hair started to fall out and I wore scarves to cover my head, remembering, vainly, each time I tied one on, how great my hair used to be.”
While Tatiana was hospitalized, with Moran by her side, her other relatives helped babysit their children.
“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,” Tatiana 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.”

She continued, “Now I have added a new tragedy to her life, to our family’s life, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it.”
After Tatiana’s essay was published, her family has been in her corner. Jack, 32, even reposted links to the article via his Instagram, while cousin Maria Shriver also offered her support.
“Tatiana is a beautiful writer, journalist, wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. This piece is about what she has been going through for the last year and a half,” Shriver, 70, wrote via her Instagram, specifically responding to the New Yorker story. “It’s an ode to all the doctors and nurses who toil on the frontlines of humanity. It’s so many things, but best to read it yourself, and be blown away by one woman’s life story. And let it be a reminder to be grateful for the life you are living today, right now, this very minute.”

Emilia Clarke was the mother of looks at her first red carpet outing in years.
The Game of Thrones star, 39, stunned at the Global Gift Gala on Saturday, November 1, at the Kimpton Fitzroy Hotel in London. She served as the Honorary Chair of the event and was seen posing with Global Gift Foundation founder Maria Bravo, singer Christina Milian and others.
Clarke wore a black McQueen dress that featured a sheer lace bodice with frill accents, a low back and a long ruffled skirt. Her hair was styled down and parted to the side. Her natural makeup look was completed with dewy skin, pink lips and black eyeliner.
According to their website, the Global Gift Foundation aims to create a positive impact on the lives of children, women and families who are in a situation of vulnerability and/or risk of social exclusion.
Emilia Clarke Feared Being Fired from ‘Game of Thrones’ After Brain Injury
Emilia was joined by her mom, Jenny Clarke, at the event as their charity SameYou was honored. SameYou advocates for better mental health treatment for people recovering from brain injuries. The organization helps survivors rebuild their lives after leaving the hospital and supports them with innovative emotional, social and physical rehabilitation programs.
Emilia herself survived two life-threatening brain hemorrhages while working on the early seasons of Game of Thrones. She initially believed something was wrong while completing a workout with her trainer in February 2011. Emilia said she “felt as though an elastic band were squeezing” on her brain in a 2019 essay for The New Yorker.
After being taken to the hospital, she was diagnosed with a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Clarke then underwent a “minimally invasive” brain surgery procedure. However, she later suffered from aphasia, which caused her to temporarily forget her name and led her to fear she would never recover.
Though the aphasia only lasted a week, she learned two years later that she suffered another brain aneurysm while undergoing a brain scan. Healthcare workers operated on her twice to resolve the issue, with the second surgery going right through her skull.
“The recovery was even more painful than it had been after the first surgery,” she explained to The New Yorker. “I looked as though I had been through a war more gruesome than any that Daenerys experienced.”

Emilia has kept a low profile following the conclusion of Game of Thrones in May 2019. She last appeared publicly at F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain in July 2024 and walked the carpet at the Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year 2023 in November of that year.
She is set to make a return to the screen soon, however, in the upcoming Prime Video series Criminal and Peacock’s spy thriller Ponies. She also voiced a character in the animated comedy The Twits, which was released on Netflix earlier this month.

Elaine Hendrix has been acting since the ‘90s — but it wasn’t always her main career path. When the actress was injured in a 1992 car accident, her dance career came to a halt and she was forced to change course.
“I believe that everything happens for a reason and it pushed me in this direction that completely worked out, thankfully,” Hendrix said with a laugh during a July 2016 interview with the Huffington Post, reflecting on why she chose to jump into acting headfirst.
It’s been more than three decades since Hendrix was hit by a car riding her bike, but her accident still haunts her. In fact, during season 34 of Dancing With the Stars, Hendrix revealed that the aftermath of the crash makes it harder to compete.
While pushing past her physical limits on the ABC competition series, Hendrix was hospitalized for an unrelated injury in October, causing fans to worry. However, Hendrix was given the green light to continue on her DWTS journey beginning with the Tuesday, November 4, episode.

Scroll down to learn more about Hendrix’s car accident and DWTS injury:
“I had just come to Los Angeles to begin my professional career and very soon after moving here I was riding my bike and got hit by a car,” Hendrix told the Huffington Post in July 2016, noting that one moment “changed everything for me.”
During her September DWTS opening package, Hendrix revealed she is “really lucky” that she “walked away” from the accident but didn’t expand further.
The Parent Trap star told the Huffington Post in July 2016 that she began her career as a “classically trained dancer in modern and contemporary jazz.” Following her accident, Hendrix said, “Dance became something that was very painful to do, so it just pushed me more in the direction of acting.”
Hendrix recalled booking a few guest starring roles before landing her first series. “That’s when I stopped dancing professionally but I never stopped dancing altogether,” she told the outlet. “It’s just that whenever I dance I need to be prepared for the fact that I will be really sore and can’t quite do the things I used to do, but that’s OK.”
Alan Bersten and Elaine Hendrix Break Down DWTS’ Meredith Blake ‘Homage’
Hendrix revealed during an October episode of Dancing With the Stars that following her ‘90s car accident, a titanium joint was placed in her right foot. She said during Wicked Night that the joint “renders half my foot unusable.”
“Every week, my body shifts into a new pain spot, but I just don’t want to let it stop me,” the actress explained during the show package. “I know my determination is going to win it, just getting there is quite a journey.”
During rehearsals for Halloween Week in October, Hendrix was rushed to the hospital after experiencing pain in her ribs. The contestant later revealed via her Instagram that she injured her ribs during her “Defying Gravity” performance one week prior and they “just seized up” during practice.
“I couldn’t move. They brought me to the hospital,” Hendrix said in the Tuesday, October 28, video. “The doctor has said that with a day or two of rest, I should be able to continue and that’s exactly what I want to do. I want to dance, I want to keep doing this.”
Hendrix’s dance partner, Alan Bersten, explained during the October 28 episode that while they were working on their Argentine tango, “Elaine kind of froze and said she can’t move and she can’t breathe, and something happened with her rib.”
He noted she was in “so much pain” and therefore he had no idea if they would dance that evening. The pair did not perform and were instead judged on their practice routine.
‘Dancing With the Stars’ Injuries Through the Years
Despite missing Halloween Night, Hendrix and Bersten scored 8s across the board from the judges on October 28. With fans’ votes, they were saved from elimination. Hendrix’s doctors, meanwhile, cleared her to continue on in the competition.
“You guys voted, we are going to be safe. We got another dance to [perform],” Bersten confirmed during a TikTok Live following the episode. “We’re going to take it easy but we will be back for the show. We will take this week easy.”
