The Kennedys are arguably the most well-known family in American politics, with numerous stories, legacies, and, of course, tragedies. The best-known member of that family may be John F. Kennedy, who served as the 35th President of the United States from 1961 until his assassination on November 22, 1963. JFK had four children with his wife, former First Lady Jackie Kennedy, but only one — daughter Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg — is still alive today. Caroline shares three children with her husband Edwin Schlossberg, two daughters, Rose and Tatiana, plus a son, Jack.

Caroline’s eldest child is Rose Kennedy Schlossberg. Born on June 25, 1988, Rose was named after her paternal great-grandmother. Rose has become an uncanny look-alike of her grandmother, Jackie, whom she called “Grand Jackie.” Unlike her family members, the Harvard grad didn’t follow the path of politics, graduating with a degree in English in 2010 and going on to get a masters in interactive telecommunications from New York University two years later. Following her studies, she started a web series called End Times Girls Club with her friend Mara Nelson-Greenberg in 2016. The six-episode series from Above Average Productions was meant to humorously provide a “guide to female-focused apocalypse survival,” via Mashable.
Although she didn’t pursue a path in politics, she still supported Democratic candidates in the past. She donated to Former President Barack Obama‘s 2008 presidential run and Alan Khazei’s run for Massachusetts’s Senate seat in 2010. She was also said to be close to her late uncle, John F. Kennedy Jr., with whom she shared similar interests (he co-founded the glossy politics/lifestyle magazine George n 1995).
More recently, it was revealed that Rose is married to Rory McAuliffe and she helps out at her wife’s restaurant in Southern California. Rose doesn’t appear to post on her Instagram, however.
Tatiana Kennedy Schlossberg, the middle child of Caroline and Edwin, was born May 5, 1990. After graduating from Yale University in 2012, Tatiana went on to get a master’s degree in American History from the University of Oxford in 2014. The new mom, who recently welcomed a newborn with her husband George Moran, is best known for her work as a reporter for The New York Times, where she typically covers climate change. She’s also written for The Atlantic and Bloomberg View and has done reporting for Bergen County Record, a local New Jersey newspaper. Tatiana’s interest in climate change led to her releasing her book Inconspicuous Consumption: The Environmental Impact You Don’t Know You Have, which came out in August 2019. In addition to the Times, she’s also worked as a columnist for Bloomberg.
Tatiana has remained close with her family. On the 50th anniversary of JFK’s assassination in 2013, Tatiana spoke and took part in a ceremony at the memorial in the U.K. In 2025, she revealed her terminal cancer diagnosis with acute myeloid leukemia with a rare mutation in an essay published via The New Yorker.
