Tommy Lee Jones was seen out in public with his wife, Dawn Laurel-Jones, marking his first appearance since the tragic death of his daughter, Victoria.
The “Men in Black” actor and his wife were photographed exiting a building in San Antonio, Texas, on Monday.
The 79-year-old star sported a blue flannel shirt, tan pants, and green sneakers, pairing the look with scruffy facial hair and glasses.

His wife, Dawn Laurel-Jones—his third—wore a red sweater paired with matching red trousers and brown suede booties.
The couple, who reside in the San Antonio area, were photographed walking side by side before getting into their car.
An insider told Daily Mail on Tuesday that Tommy is “not himself right now.”
Dawn Laurel-Jones appeared composed in a striking red outfit during the outing.
“Tommy is heartbroken,” a source said, adding, “For a tough guy who usually has it all together, the stress of losing a child has clearly hit him like a ton of bricks.”
The actor’s somber public appearance came just five days after his daughter, Victoria, tragically passed away at the Fairmont San Francisco hotel on January 1. She was 34.
The following day, Tommy addressed the loss in a heartfelt family statement.
“We appreciate all of the kind words, thoughts, and prayers,” the family wrote in a statement obtained by Page Six on January 2. “Please respect our privacy during this difficult time. Thank you.”

The family’s statement regarding Victoria’s passing was signed, “The Family of Victoria Kafka Jones.”
Victoria was Tommy’s daughter with his second wife, Kimberlea Cloughley, to whom he was married from 1981 to 1996. (He later married Dawn in 2001, and his first marriage was to Kate Lardner from 1971 to 1978.)
Victoria was found unresponsive early on New Year’s Day on the 14th floor of the luxury Fairmont San Francisco hotel by someone who initially believed she was drunkenly passed out. Staffers were alerted immediately, and 911 was called.
The emergency call was dispatched as a “code 3 for the overdose, color change,” which could suggest a suspected overdose. However, Victoria’s official cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
First responders attempted to revive Victoria, but she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Although there were no signs of foul play or drug paraphernalia, a San Francisco police officer familiar with Victoria told The Post that she had struggled with substance abuse and suspected her death may have been “fentanyl-related.”
A spokesperson for the Fairmont San Francisco told Page Six at the time that the hotel staff was “deeply saddened by the incident.”
Victoria (pictured in a June 2025 mugshot) had been arrested several times in the months leading up to her death.
A Fairmont San Francisco spokesperson said, “Our heartfelt condolences are with the family and loved ones during this very difficult time. The hotel team is actively cooperating and supporting police authorities within the framework of the ongoing investigation.”
Victoria, who had a notable criminal record, had admitted to being under the influence of cocaine during an arrest just months before her passing.
