Tragic: Fox News Contributor Dies Following Hidden Battle With…

Dr. Kelly Powers, a Fox News contributor known for her appearances onRed Eyeand Fox Business, fought valiantly against a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer but succumbed to the illness on Sunday. She was 45 years old, according to the U.K.’sDaily Mail.

In 2020, Powers, a surgeon, received a diagnosis of glioblastoma, a devastating and frequently fatal form of brain cancer.

Powers passed away in New Jersey, according to an online obituary from Holmdel Funeral Home. The funeral home has scheduled a visitation for Thursday. In recent years, Powers resided in Colts Neck with her family, the New York Daily Newsreported.

“She was a brave and beautiful soul who could make friends anywhere she went,” the obituary reads. “Kelly had a love for people and she was dedicated to helping others. … Kelly was an accomplished doctor and surgeon who held several spotlights on TV and in magazines. Most important to her was her family.”

“She was a brave and beautiful soul who could make friends anywhere she went. Kelly had a love for people and she was dedicated to helping others,”the obituary read.

Born on May 13, 1979, in Yonkers, Dr. Kelly Powers pursued her education at Baruch College in New York City before attending the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. She went on to earn a master’s degree in science from the University of San Francisco and completed residency programs at Georgetown University and Boston University, the Daily News added.

Dr. Kelly Powers became a prominent medical expert, frequently appearing on Fox News, Fox Business, CNN, NBC, and CBS to share her insights.

In 2020, she was diagnosed with glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive forms of brain cancer. Although she initially appeared to win her battle after successfully undergoing surgery to remove a tumor, the cancer returned earlier this year, according to her friend and Fox media colleague Cheryl Casone.

Powers is survived by her husband, Steven Doll, and their young son, Bennett.

A funeral service will be held on Friday at 11 a.m. at Tower Hill Church in Red Bank, N.J., the Daily News noted.

After years of helping patients, Powers became a patient herself while hosting a Fox News segment about heart health when she began to experience shortness of breath and chest pains, the New York Postreported.

“It’s crazy. I went into heart failure while doing a report on Fox Business — live — on heart health and talking about the subtle signs that women often miss. You can’t make this up,” shetoldPreferred Health Magazine in an interview after her first diagnosis.

She fought through her illness, only to later learn she had aggressive brain cancer known as glioblastoma, The Post noted.

Despite undergoing three surgeries, chemotherapy, and radiation, Dr. Kelly Powers managed to overcome the cancer while also experiencing the joy of becoming pregnant and giving birth to her son, Bennett, according to a GoFundMe page.

She humorously referred to herself as “the luckiest unlucky girl” for prevailing over her illness and often joked that her treatment left her and baby Bennett sharing the same haircut during his infancy, the page noted.

“When her cancer returned in 2024, friends raised nearly $100,000 to help pay for an experimental treatment that insurance wouldn’t cover,” The Post said.
