Aubrey Plaza Honors Late Husband Jeff Baena at SNL 50

Aubrey Plaza made a poignant appearance at SNL's 50th anniversary event, marking her first public outing since the tragic death of her husband, filmmaker Jeff Baena, who died by suicide on January 3. Plaza paid tribute to Baena by wearing a tie-dye shirt, a nod to his love for tie-dyeing, which they incorporated into their wedding attire. The couple, who began dating in 2011 and married in 2021, frequently collaborated on various film projects, including Baena's last film, Spin Me Round. Following Baena's death, Plaza and his family released a statement calling the loss an 'unimaginable tragedy' and requested privacy. Baena was laid to rest in a memorial garden in Miami, where a private funeral was held. His death certificate confirmed the cause as suicide and provided details about the circumstances surrounding his passing.
