Kara Kennedy had battled lung cancer and in 2003 docs had removed a malignant tumor. Her brother Former Rep. Patrick Kennedy confirmed the death saying her rigorous cancer treatment "took quite a toll on her and weakened her physically."

Mondale, the middle of three children born to Walter and Joan Mondale, campaigned for her dad during his campaign to unseat President Ronald Reagan in 1984.
 
Eleanor began her career as a budding thesp with small parts on "Three's Company" and "Dynasty" before covering the entertainment world on both local TV and radio and nationally  — at E! , ESPN and CBS News.
