Tommy Lee Jones and his family issued an emotional statement in the wake of his daughter Victoria’s death at 34.
“We appreciate all of the kind words, thoughts, and prayers,” the family wrote in a statement obtained by Page Six on Friday evening.
“Please respect our privacy during this difficult time. Thank you.” The statement was signed, “The Family of Victoria Kafka Jones.”
News broke Thursday that Victoria had been found unresponsive on the 14th floor of San Francisco’s Fairmont hotel early that morning.

The 911 call regarding the New Year’s Day incident, obtained by TMZ, pointed to a possible overdose due to “color change,” which usually refers to cyanosis, a “discoloration of the skin, lips or fingernails caused by a lack of oxygen in the blood,” per the Cleveland Clinic.
Despite bystanders performing CPR on Victoria and paramedics attempting to revive her upon arrival, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
While Victoria’s cause of death remains unclear, the San Francisco Police Department reportedly did not find drug paraphernalia, signs of foul play or anything pointing to a suicide.
A rep for the hotel released a statement to Page Six, reading, “We are deeply saddened by an incident that occurred at the hotel on Jan. 1, 2026. Our heartfelt condolences are with the family and loved ones during this very difficult time.
“The hotel team is actively cooperating and supporting police authorities within the framework of the ongoing investigation.”
Victoria is survived by her parents — Jones and his ex-wife Kimberlea Coughley — as well as brother Austin, 43.
The former couple welcomed Victoria in 1991, five years before ending their 15-year marriage.
Victoria had a brief acting career as a child, working with her dad on “Men in Black II” and “The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada.”
Victoria also appeared in a 2003 “One Tree Hill” episode.
Jones’ youngest child, who occasionally joined him for red carpets, developed a rap sheet in her subsequent years out of the spotlight.
Victoria was arrested at least twice in Napa County, Calif., in the year prior to her passing, starting with charges of obstructing a peace officer, using/being under the influence of a controlled substance and possession of a narcotic controlled substance in April 2025.
