Aubrey Plaza was separated from husband Jeff Baena in the months before his death, according to a report.
A new report from the Los Angeles medical examiner revealed the couple had been separated since September 2024.
“According to the reported information, the decedent Jeffrey Baena is a 47-year-old Caucasian male,” the medical examiner wrote in the synopsis of an investigative summary report, which was obtained by Us Weekly. “He was experiencing recent marital difficulties and was separated from his wife since September 2024.”
Baena was found January 3 by an assistant in his Los Angeles, California home. He was pronounced dead at the scene. His cause of death was later determined to be suicide.
His credits included Life After Beth (2014), The Little Hours (2017) and the Netflix film Horse Girl (2020).
Baena and Plaza began dating in 2011. They later wed in 2020.
