Speaking on the sidelines of a youth civic engagement event in Lower Manhattan on Wednesday, the 31-year-old JFK grandson, who has largely kept a low profile outside of occasional public advocacy work, told reporters that his parents have been leaning on each other, their extended family, and their tight-knit local community as they process the loss of their daughter. “My mom and dad have been such a source of strength for all of us right now, even when they’re hurting more than anyone can imagine,” Jack said in brief, emotional remarks. “Mom has formally stepped back from all of her diplomatic duties for the foreseeable future, and dad has canceled all upcoming speaking engagements and client design project deadlines to be with family full-time. Most days, they’re either up at our family home in Martha’s Vineyard where Tatiana spent so much of her childhood, or staying with Tatiana’s husband and her two young kids, helping with school drop-offs, bedtime routines, and all the small, mundane, normal things that make the unendurable days feel a little softer.” He added that the entire family has been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from members of the public who followed Tatiana’s decade-long career covering climate justice and underreported environmental policy issues, and that they are in the early stages of planning a non-profit foundation named in her honor that will fund grassroots youth-led climate action projects across the U.S. Jack also emphasized that while the family appreciates all the kind messages and tributes they have received from around the world, they are asking for full privacy as they grieve, and will not be sharing any further details about Tatiana’s cause of death or any upcoming private memorial services at this time. “Tatiana spent her whole career fighting to protect the planet for future generations, and that’s the legacy we want to lift up right now, not all the noise and baseless speculation that comes with being part of a well-known public family,” he said. “We’re just taking it one day at a time, and we’re so grateful for everyone who has respected our space during this impossibly hard period.”
