Aubrey Plaza was concerned about her husband, Jeff Baena, months before his de@th, according to a report.

Plaza and Baena had been separated since September 2024 when, a month later, Baena made “concerning remarks” to Plaza that prompted the actress to “call a friend to perform a welfare check on her husband,” according to a report by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner, which was obtained by People.

After the welfare check, Baena began going to therapy. According to the outlet, Baena explained that he was experiencing “recent marital difficulties” with Plaza.
