Dr. Kelly Powers Dies: Fox News Commentator Was 45

Dr. Kelly Powers, a Fox News commentator, has died. She was 45.

The physician and surgeon died on Sunday, December 1, after battling brain cancer, which she was first diagnosed with 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,” read an obituary in her honor. “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 attended the New York College of Podiatric Medicine and completed her residency at Georgetown and the Boston University School of Medicine. The physician made TV appearances on Fox News shows like Red Eye and Fox & Friends and Fox Business shows like The Willis Report.

Republican pundit Meghan McCain took to social media to send her thoughts to the Powers family following their loss. McCain’s father, the late Senator John McCain, was diagnosed with Glioblastoma, which he died from in 2018.

“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 posted on X, the Elon Musk-owned social media platform.

Dr. Powers is survived by her husband, Steven Doll, her son Bennett, her parents, and her mother and father-in-laws Daniel and Laraine Doll.
