Let's do what she asks and leave her in peace.

No, let's point cameras at her face and remind her incessantly of her dead husband!

TIL Aubrey Plaza was married.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago

She really didn't make a huge deal about it, I think her announcement was her referring to him as "my husband" in a social media post a few years back.

They were together for like a decade. So sad.

I won't pretend to understand what's happened and why. I don't follow celebrities and their lives. I'm not familiar with his work, but I do adore Aubrey. If she chose him as a partner, then I can only assume that he was an incredible person.

Suicide is complicated. Many of us have contemplated it. Many of us have tried. Some of us have succeeded. And still many more have found healing of both attempt and/or ideation.

I won't judge a person for taking their life. Regardless of the circumstances though, it almost always leaves behind hurting people.

I hope those around him are able to seek and eventually find the healing they need. And I hope that his friends and family get the privacy and respect they deserve.

To all those who think (e.g. paparazzi, TMZ) it's their business in any way shape or form, may the universe set you straight... preferably sternly...

First, I agree with you almost entirely. I love Aubrey's work and general vibe. My heart goes out to her and anyone else who has been in a similar situation. That all being said the smartass pedant in me has to speak.

Some of us have succeeded.

Probably not reading this thread tbh.

How do you know Aubrey!? It sounds like you have a cool story to share!

[–] TheBraveSirRobbin 5 points 1 week ago

Could just be a language gap, but I took it as they know who Aubrey is from her work and interviews etc, not that they personally know her

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Full statement, to be clear, via People (paywalled)

Suicide makes it worse.

[–] ChicoSuave 21 points 1 week ago

That's the worst thing to learn. The call from a stranger who sounds sad, that heavy "I'm sorry." No one deserves to think that they weren't enough to stop their loved one from killing themselves but it will live in her head for a while. Suicide hurts everyone for years except for the victim.
