The daughter of Hollywood star Tommy Lee Jones has been found dead at a luxury hotel in San Francisco on New Year's Day. Victoria Jones, a 34-year-old actress, was discovered unresponsive in the early hours of 1 January 2026.
Discovery and Emergency Response
Victoria Jones was found by another guest on the 14th floor of the Fairmont Hotel San Francisco at approximately 3am. The guest reportedly believed she might be intoxicated and alerted hotel staff immediately. Staff members then found Victoria unresponsive and initiated CPR while calling emergency services.
The San Francisco Fire Department responded to the call at 2.52am. Despite efforts by first responders and paramedics at the scene, Victoria was pronounced dead. A police source stated: "CPR was done, but she was pronounced deceased by the emergency/ambulance crew that responded to the scene."
Ongoing Investigation
The San Francisco Police Department and the Medical Examiner's Office have taken over the investigation. Authorities confirmed they were called to the hotel on the 900 block of Mason Street at about 3.14am regarding a report of a deceased person.
A source told the Daily Mail that no signs of foul play were apparent and no drug paraphernalia was found. The source also indicated there were no immediate indications that Victoria had taken her own life. It remains unclear if she was a registered guest at the hotel or how she came to be on the 14th floor.
The Medical Examiner has attended the scene and an investigation is underway, but a formal cause of death has not yet been confirmed. Police are appealing for anyone with information to contact them.
