Aubrey Plaza didn’t join the ranks of numerous celebrities at the Golden Globes Sunday night … skipping the ceremony two days after her husband passed away.
Numerous celebrities packed the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills for the 82nd iteration of the ceremony … but, Aubrey wasn’t among them — and, it’s pretty clear why.
Plaza was originally scheduled to present an award … though it’s unclear which one or who filled in for her.
We broke the story … police and fire responded to a Los Angeles-area home at 10:30 AM on Friday after an assistant discovered Baena dead.
Law enforcement has ruled the death a suicide.
Baena was known for directing “Life After Beth” and “Horse Girl” … and, he co-wrote the classic comedy “I Heart Hucakbees.”
Actress Molly Shannon paid tribute to Baena Sunday … sharing a series of photos of them together captioned with a simple “💔” emoji.
Also worth noting … Baena was mentioned at the Golden Globes — after “The Brutalist” director Brady Corbet brought him up during one of his acceptance speeches.
The Drew Barrymore Show
Baena and Plaza married in 2021 … and, Aubrey described the lowkey affair on an episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show.”
We’ve reached out to Aubrey’s team about her decision to skip the Globes … so far, no word back.
