Ethel Kennedy, the 96-year-old widow of former U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, was hospitalized last week after suffering a stroke, her family said.
Kennedy’s grandson, former Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-MA), announced the health update in a social media statement on Tuesday.
“She is comfortable, she is getting the best care possible, and she is surrounded by family,” he said. “She is, as you may know, a strong woman who has led a remarkably fulfilling life. We are here looking after her.”
This is a breaking story and will be updated.
