Actually, correction, it is her niece - her brother's daughter, Rachel Brosnahan.

She had such a whimsical style that this just doesn't seem right.

fan of her messenger bag for years. I was friends w/ her sister when I lived in San Francisco (she had some issues as well). One of her other sisters is starring in "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel". How tragic for her family! RIP Kate.

I loved her handbags as well. Her line is owned by Coach now.

It's just so shocking when someone relatively young and successful, especially w/ a young child, takes their own life.

I like her products. Only had one, a pretty phone case. You never know what someone is dealing with. I hope her family can find some peace.
