Heartbreaking News: Dr. Kelly Powers, Fox News Contributor, Dies at 45 After Battle with Brain Cancer
Dr. Kelly Powers, a prominent Fox News contributor and respected physician, died on December 1, 2024, at the age of 45, after a courageous battle with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Diagnosed in 2020, Powers underwent extensive treatments, including surgery and chemotherapy, achieving temporary remission before the cancer returned earlier this year.
In addition to his role as a medical expert on shows such as Red Eye and Fox Business, Powers was also a dedicated podiatric surgeon with advanced training at institutions such as Georgetown and Boston University. Despite her health issues, she shared a resilient spirit, even jokingly calling herself "the unluckiest girl" due to her simultaneous struggles and joys, such as welcoming son Bennett via surrogacy in 2021.
Powers' contributions extended beyond his profession; has used its platform to raise awareness of health issues and subtle symptoms of critical conditions. Her passing leaves behind her husband Steve and their three-year-old son, marking a significant loss to her family, her colleagues and her viewers.
