Tommy Lee Jones' daughter Victoria found dead aged 34 in hotel

Tommy Lee Jones' daughter Victoria was found dead in an upscale San Francisco hotel aged 34, in the small hours of the morning on New Year's Day.

The San Francisco Fire Department told the Daily Mail that they responded to a call for medical aid at 2:52am Thursday at the address of the Fairmont San Francisco.

Emergency personnel performed an assessment and pronounced one person dead at the scene. The San Francisco Police Department and the San Francisco Medical Examiner also responded, but at present the cause of death is unknown.

'A white female around her mid-30s was found unresponsive and the hotel staff was alerted,' a source informed the Daily Mail. 'CPR was done, but she was pronounced deceased by the emergency/ambulance crew that responded to the scene.' The Daily Mail has confirmed the woman was Victoria.

The news was first reported by TMZ, which said that the scene was turned over to the police department once she was pronounced dead. 

Jones welcomed Victoria and his son Austin, 42, with his second wife Kimberlea Cloughley, whom he was married to from 1981 to 1996. 

The Daily Mail has contacted Tommy Lee Jones' representatives for comment, as well as the Fairmont San Francisco and the San Francisco Police Department.

A spokesperson for the San Francisco Police Department told the Daily Mail: 'On 1/1/26 at approximately 3:14 a.m., San Francisco Police officers responded to a hotel located on the 900 block of Mason street regarding a report of a deceased person.'

The statement continued: 'At the scene, officers met with medics, who declared the adult female deceased. The Medical Examiner arrived on scene and conducted an investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the SFPD at 415-575-4444 or Text a Tip to TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD.'

The dark demise of Hollywood's brightest child stars: As NYPD Blue actor Austin Majors dies of a fentanyl overdose at 27, FEMAIL reveals the bitter struggles of other young talents - from drugs to suicidal depression

Victoria Kafka Jones was born on September 3, 1991, and by 2002 she had made her movie debut with a small part in her father's picture Men in Black II.

She appeared in a handful of acting projects as a child, including a 2005 episode of One Tree Hill and a role that same year a Western called The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, which was directed by her father.

Although she has not acted onscreen since she played a cheerleader on One Tree Hill, she has attended the occasional red carpet with Jones as an adult.

In 2017, she posed proudly at his side at the ArcLight Hollywood for the premiere of his movie Just Getting Started, also starring Morgan Freeman and Rene Russo. 

That October, she made an appearance with her father at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo International Film Festival, where he was serving as president of the international competition jury. 

After directing his daughter in The Three Burials of Melquiades, Jones showered praise on Victoria in an interview promoting the film.

'She’s a good actress, has her SAG card, speaks impeccable Spanish,' he said. 'When she was a baby, I told Leticia, her nurse, to speak to her in Spanish.'

He also related a charming anecdote about having to acclimatize his then 14-year-old daughter to the rigors of working on a Hollywood movie set.

'She had to get up at 5am for her part. One morning, she wouldn’t get out of bed. I said: "Honey, this is work." But she wouldn’t budge,' he told the New Yorker. 

'So I fired her. Then, without telling me, the production staff went over and woke her and rushed her out to the set just in time,' he recalled.
