Mary Kennedy, ex-wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was found dead at her New York home Wednesday, a source told the Associated Press.
Kerry Lawrence, an attorney, confirmed her death, but did not know the cause.
The Bedford, N.Y. police
department said that at approximately 1:36 p.m. they responded to a call
about a deceased individual found at the Kennedys' home. They
are investigating an "unattended death."
A spokesperson for Mary Kennedy's family released a statement,
saying, "We deeply regret the death of our beloved sister Mary, whose
radiant and creative spirit will be sorely missed by those who loved
her. Our heart goes out to her children who she loved without
reservation. We have no further comment at this time."
After 16 years of marriage,
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filed for divorce from Mary Kennedy in May 2010.
They have four children, and Mary Kennedy is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s
second wife.
Mary Kennedy struggled with drug
and alcohol problems, according to the AP. She was charged with driving
under the influence of drugs, and her license was also suspended for
driving under the influence of alcohol. Both incidents happened around
the time of her divorce.
An unnamed source told Radaronline.com that Mary committed suicide. That information has not been confirmed.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is
reportedly currently dating actress Cheryl Hines. He is the son of
former Sen. Robert Kennedy and the nephew of former President John F.
Kennedy.
