Legendary fashion designer Kate Spade was found dead hanging in her Park Avenue apartment in New York Tuesday in an apparent suicide, police said. She was 55. Spade’s body was found by a housekeeper not long after 10 a.m., police said at an afternoon news conference. Her husband and business partner, Andy Spade, was in the apartment at the time. The couple’s 13-year-old daughter was at school. Fox News says it has heard that Spade was not going to see any money from the sale of her company last year, although it had no details of why. CBC
