Aubrey Plaza Reveals Shocking Truth About Her Grief in Haunting First Interview Since Husband’s Death
What’s the strangest place you’ve ever found comfort after a loss—an old sitcom rerun, the crackle of a snack bag echoing through the living room in the middle of the night, or maybe, just maybe, the gentle nudge of a furry companion at your feet? The truth: grief makes aliens of us all, and even the sharpest wit can feel dulled by heartache. This week, on Amy Poehler’s “Good Hang” podcast, Aubrey Plaza did what few celebrities attempt—she cracked open her private world of sorrow after losing her husband, Jeff Baena, to suicide earlier this year. Four months separated, thirteen years together, and a swirling ocean of questions in between . How do we wade through that kind of gorge without being swallowed whole? Plaza speaks about grief, gratitude, and what it means to be both lost and found, sometimes thanks to a therapy dog named Frankie. Dive in if you’re ready for a story that’s raw, witty, and achingly human—because sometimes, making it through the echos of tragedy takes more than resilience. It takes honesty. It takes a kind of hope you can hardly name. And, if you’re curious (or simply need to know you’re not alone), you can LEARN MORE.
