The American director and screenwriter Jeff Baena, husband of US actress Aubrey Plaza, has been found dead in their home in Los Angeles. He was 47 years old.

His body was discovered by an assistant in the house they had bought in 2022, according to reports. According to media reports, he is said to have taken his own life. A spokesperson announced: "The family is devastated and asks for privacy during this difficult time."

Plaza (40, "Parks and Recreation", "The White Lotus") and Baena had married in 2021 after a ten-year relationship. Plaza starred in Baena's films "Life After Beth" (2014), "The Little Hours" (2017) and "Spin Me Round" (2022), among others.
