Aubrey Plaza has spoken about the difficulties she faces following the death of her husband, filmmaker Jeff Baena. Appearing on her friend and former 'Parks and Recreation' co-star Amy Poehler’s podcast 'Good Hang,' Plaza said she is “functioning” but described life after his passing as “a daily struggle.”
“In this very, very present moment, I feel happy to be with you,” Plaza told Poehler. “I’m here and I’m functioning. I feel really grateful to be moving through the world. I think I’m okay, but it’s like a daily struggle, obviously,” the actress said.
Plaza and Baena collaborated on several projects over the years, including 'Life After Beth' (2014) and 'Spin Me Round' (2022). The couple began dating in 2011, and in 2021 Plaza revealed they had married. Baena took his own life in January, at the age of 47.
