Aubrey Plaza, who recently lost her husband, Jeff Baena, opened up in her first public statement following the director’s death.
“This is an unimaginable tragedy. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has offered support. Please respect our privacy during this time,” said the 40-year-old actress to People magazine.
Baena was 47 years old when he committed suicide last Friday, according to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner. The two had been together since 2011 and married in 2021. Over the years, they collaborated on several projects.
Among them, they worked together on the 2014 horror-comedy Life After Beth and the 2017 historical comedy The Little Hours. Most recently, the couple collaborated on the 2021 comedy series Cinema Toast and the 2022 film Spin Me Round.
