Tommy Lee Jones has broken his silence following the death of his daughter Victoria last week.
According to TMZ, the 34-year-old was discovered at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco on the morning of Thursday, January 1 after she suffered a medical emergency.
Victoria’s body was initially found by another hotel guest just hours into 2026 – said guest reportedly mistook her for being passed out drunk. TMZ say she was discovered on the 14th floor of the Fairmont by the aforementioned guest, while the Daily Mail claim that the guest then notified hotel staff.
Her family – including Hollywood superstar Tommy Lee Jones – issued a heartbreaking statement that reads: “We appreciate all of the kind words, thoughts, and prayers.
“Please respect our privacy during this difficult time. Thank you.” The statement was signed, “The Family of Victoria Kafka Jones.”
At the time of writing there is no confirmed cause of death. The San Francisco Police Department and hotel staff have been cooperating as investigators work to understand what happened.
A 911 call obtained by the Daily Mail described a “code 3 for the overdose, color change,” a phrase referring to cyanosis, a discoloration caused by lack of oxygen in the blood.
While the above call implied a potential overdose, it’s reported that no drug paraphernalia was discovered near Victoria’s body. Investigators have also revealed that there were no signs of foul play, trauma, or suicide.
A source supposedly present at the scene told the Mail: “There were no signs of foul play, such as trauma to the body, and police did not find any drug paraphernalia on the scene. There were also no signs that Victoria may have taken her own life.”
Following in her father’s shadow, Victoria made her acting debut in 2002’s Men in Black II. She later appeared in One Tree Hill and in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, a film directed by her father that also involved her stepmother, Dawn Laurel-Jones, who served as the project’s stills photographer.
Rest in peace, Victoria Jones.
