Kate Spade has died at age 55

Iconic fashion designer Kate Spade was found dead Tuesday morning in her NYC apartment ... TMZ has learned.
It's unclear who found her, but we're told Kate was in her home on Park Avenue at the time. There are reports it was suicide.
Kate got her start in the '80s working for women's magazine "Mademoiselle" in Manhattan, when she moved in with Andy Spade -- David Spade's brother, who she met in college while working at a clothing store.
Together, Kate and Andy launched Kate Spade Handbags in 1993, and it blossomed into a full-scale clothing and jewelry line. Kate and Andy got married in 1994.
Kate sold her company in 2007 and took some time off to raise her daughter -- but got back in the game in 2016 by launching a new fashion brand called Frances Valentine ... named after her daughter.
Kate was 55.
RIP

That is sad. And I had no idea she was David Spade' sister in law.

Me neither. Also didn’t know she was Rachel Brosnahan’s aunt.
