Lee Radziwill Remembered for 'Beauty, Intelligence, Style' After Dying at 85
Lee Radziwill’s legacy is being celebrated in the wake of her death.
Radziwill — the younger sister of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and mother-in-law of Real Housewives of New York alum Carole Radziwill — died on Friday in New York City, her daughter Anna Christina Radziwill told the New York Times. She was 85.

As news of her death became public on Saturday, Radziwill’s family and friends, as well as members of the fashion industry, paid tribute.
