Tatiana died before the new year after a battle with cancer. She was 35 years old.
“Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts,” the JFK Library Foundation shared on December 30, 2025, in a statement via Instagram signed by her husband, children, parents, siblings, Jack and Rose Schlossberg and sister-in-law Rory Schlossberg.
Tatiana revealed in a November 2025 essay for The New Yorker that she had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia a year earlier.
“I couldn’t believe, couldn’t, that they were talking about me. I swam 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. “I had a son that I loved more than anything and a newborn that I had to take care of.”
After giving birth to Josephine, Tatiana underwent a bone marrow transplant at Memorial Sloan Kettering and received chemotherapy treatments. He also did a CAR-T cell therapy clinical trial before learning his cancer was terminal.
Tatiana reflected on how much she struggled with knowing that her time with her children was limited.
“My first thought was that my children, whose faces live permanently inside my eyelids, would not remember me,” she wrote in the essay. “My son may have a few memories, but he’ll probably start confusing them with images he sees or stories he hears. I was never able to take care of my daughter, I couldn’t change her diaper, or bathe her, or feed her, all because of the risk of infection after the transplants. I was away for almost half of her first year of life and she doesn’t know who I am, she doesn’t really know who I am, she doesn’t know who I am. or remember, when I’m gone, that I am his mother”.
