Tragedy often comes for the Kennedy family. The death of Saoirse Kennedy is the last

No cause of death was provided, although two family members told The New York Times that she had died of an apparent overdose.

On June 6, 2000, a little girl dressed in a pale pink dress stood in front of the grave of former President John F. Kennedy at Arlington National Cemetery, which had been murdered decades before her birth. She placed a white rose near the eternal flame that watched over her resting place like people in mourning, all dressed in black, cluttered and watched.

The girl was the JFK's great-niece, Saoirse Kennedy Hill. His grandfather, Robert F. Kennedy - who also experienced a premature end: assassinated during his presidential campaign in 1968-is buried in an adjacent grave.

On Thursday, Kennedy Hill, now 22, was found dead in the compound of the famous Kennedy family in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, becoming the latest in a long line of tragedies that the American political dynasty has suffered for generations.

"Our heart is broken by the loss of our beloved Saoirse," The Kennedy family said in a statement to The Post. "Her life was filled with hope, promise and love."Officials did not provide a cause of death, although two family members told The New York Times that she died of an overdose.

Another great uncle of Kennedy Hill, the late senator Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., Has already spoken of a "curse" of the family, after the infamous car accident in 1969 that killed his passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne. Many of the most famous members of the Kennedys family - a president, a leading presidential candidate, an American senator and a liberal lion, and a beloved socialite-have experienced premature death or great personal trauma. But they weren't the only ones.

- John F. Kennedy: the 35th American president entered the White House with a source of promise, but left it in tragedy. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 during a shooting in Dallas.

The second of nine children born to Joseph and Rose Kennedy, his death shook the nation. He was not the first, nor the last, Kennedy to die unexpectedly.

- Robert F. Kennedy: Robert, who served as attorney general of his elder brother during his presidency, has built a lasting political legacy. He was elected U.S. senator for New York in 1965. During his 1968 presidential campaign, he was assassinated on stage in Los Angeles, after delivering a primary victory speech in California.

- Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr.: Elder of the Kennedy brothers and sisters, Joseph was a Navy pilot during World War II. He did many combat missions but died in a mysterious in-flight explosion during a secret mission that went wrong.

- Kathleen Cavendish: Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy volunteered for the Red Cross during World War II, first in New York and then in London. She married a British nobleman, William Cavendish, Marquess of Hartington, who died shortly after being called up in 1944. She remained in England after the war and died in a plane crash in France in 1948.

- Edward "Ted" Kennedy: Kennedy served as u.s. senator from Massachusetts for 46 years and passed away in 2007 after succumbing to brain cancer - but he had already escaped death. In July 1969, Kennedy left his car of a bridge on the island of Chappaquiddick in Martha is Vineyard, killing his passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne.

The accident remains one of the most controversial incidents in the family's history and inspired the film "Chappaquiddick" in 2017 and the novel "Black Water" in 1992 by Joyce Carol Oates. Kopechne's death weighed heavily on the rest of his political career, but Kennedy became one of the oldest American senators in history and an incontrovertible voice of the American liberals.

- Rosemary Kennedy: unlike her siblings, Rosemary's traumas were inflicted by her own family. His birth, complicated by human error, probably resulted in his mental handicap, writes Meryl Gordon in her review of Kate Clifford Larson's biography "Rosemary: The Hidden daughter of Kennedy". Refusing to accept the circumstances of their daughter, patriarch Joseph Kennedy subjected Rosemary to a prefrontal lobotomy that left her severely disabled for the rest of her life. She was hidden in a mental institution and abandoned by her parents.

- John F. Kennedy Jr.: The next generation of Kennedys also suffered losses. John F. Kennedy Jr., the dead President's son, was killed when the small plane he was flying crashed into the sea near Martha's Vineyard. The accident also claimed the lives of his wife, Carolyn Kennedy, and his sister, Lauren Bessette.

- David Kennedy: David, the son of Ethel and Robert F. Kennedy, was found dead in a hotel room in Palm Beach, Florida, in 1984 after years of fighting drug addiction. He was reportedly traumatized by the violent death of his father. His uncle, Senator Edward Kennedy, said in a statement that "we all pray that David has finally found the peace he has not found in life".
