Victoria was the daughter of the *No Country for Old Men* star and his ex-wife, Kimberlea Cloughley, to whom he was married from 1981 to 1996. (The former couple also had a son, Austin Jones, who is 43.)****Like her father, Victoria had worked as an actor, and she appeared in several of his projects. They worked together on *Men in Black II*, his 2002 blockbuster with Will Smith, as well as on two Western films that he directed: 2005's *The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada*, which costarred January Jones and Dwight Yoakam, and *The Homesman*, with Hilary Swank and John Lithgow, in 2014.

Tommy Lee Jones sought conservatorship of daughter Victoria Jones 2 years before her death

Victoria's credits also included 2005 thriller *Sorry, Haters*, which starred Robin Wright, and a 2005 episode of teen drama *One Tree Hill*.

PEOPLE reported that she had been arrested at least two times in the past year, including once for drug possession.

EW also viewed court records that showed *The Fugitive* star had placed his daughter under a legal conservatorship in August 2023, before petitioning the court to terminate it four months later.

Her Oscar-winning father has recalled that while working with her, he once had to fire her when she wouldn't get out of bed for an early call time.

He'd also spoken of her with pride.

"She's a good actress," the elder Jones told *The New Yorker* in 2006, "has her SAG card, speaks impeccable Spanish."**
