FOX News commentator Dr. Kelly Powers died at the age of 45 following a long battle with cancer, according to a Legacy.com obituary.
Powers, a physician and surgeon, is reported to have died on Sunday (December 1) after initially being diagnosed with Glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, in 2020.
“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 states. “She held many hobbies including gardening, surfing, ballet, biking, running, horseback riding, travel, and several more activities. Kelly was an accomplished doctor and surgeon who held several spotlights on TV and magazines. Most important to her was her family.”
Powers commonly appeared on several FOX News programs including Red Eye and FOX & Friends, as well as several FOX Business shows. Republican pundit Meghan McCain, whose father, former Sen. John McCain, died in 2018 after his own battle with Glioblastoma, paid tribute to Powers in a post shared on her X account.
"Sending so much love, light and prayers to Dr. Powers family and loved ones. Glioblastoma is pure, unadulterated evil that no person or family should go through. My family is here if you need anything," McCain wrote.
