Children's disappearance and suicide
On July 2013, Jones’s children, Paris and Helga Jones, were reported missing in Los Angeles, California, United States by their nanny. At the time, the twins were staying with Jones in his home; Jones was in New York City the morning of the disappearance and their mother, Putanovska was in her London residence. Shortly after Putanovska was notified by Jones, she flew to Los Angeles, where the news had spread by the time she landed, and became the top story in the US that week. She offered a brief statement when interviewed asking for “privacy and respect at this time. I do not wish to comment on anything any further.” On November 2013, after battling with depression and opioid addiction, Jones was found dead at his home; police concluded he had died from a self-inflicted shotgun wound.

On November 2 of that same year, Jones reportedly asked Putanovska to visit him at his home in Calabasas. Putanovska and her mother Ekaterina Ratsvetaeva had been staying at the Laurel Canyon estate of British-American musician and actressShell Ruin, who is a close friend of Putanovska. Putanovska reportedly agreed to Jones’ invitation and was photographed entering his house that same afternoon; Ruin (who dropped Putanovska off at his house), as well as other neighbors, said Jones looked “fine”. It would be the last time anyone other than Putanovska would see him alive. Putanovska left Jones’ home several hours later. Tabloid site ‘’TMZ’’ showed footage of Putanovska leaving Jones’ house and stepping into Ruin’s vehicle at 1 am.

The following morning, Jones’ body was discovered by his landscaper Mikito Burruss, who had arrived to work on his lawn. Apart from a small amount of blood coming out of Jone’s ear, the landscaper reported seeing no visible signs of trauma and initially believed that Jones was asleep until he saw the shotgun pointing at his chin. A high concentration of heroin and traces of Fentanyl were also found in his body. The coroner's report estimated he died only a few hours before his body was discovered, at the age of 31. No apparent suicide note has ever been found.
