Victoria Kafka Jones joined the family in September 1991.

She also worked with her dad on set, making her debut in “Men in Black II” in 2002, followed by “The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada,” which Tommy Lee directed, four years later.

Tommy Lee called his youngest child a “good actress” in a 2006 New Yorker interview — and joked that he “fired her” one morning when she “wouldn’t get out of bed” to film.

Despite Victoria’s eventual step back from acting, she continued accompanying her dad to red carpets, most recently attending the “Just Getting Started” premiere in 2017.

She developed a rap sheet while out of the public eye, getting arrested in 2011 for theft in the amount of $50 to $500 — a charge that was later dismissed.

In 2025, Victoria was arrested at least twice in Napa County, Calif., for obstructing a peace officer, using/being under the influence of a controlled substance and possession of a narcotic controlled substance, as well as domestic battery and domestic violence/elder abuse.

She pleaded not guilty to all charges.

On New Year’s Day in 2026, the 34-year-old was found dead in the Fairmont San Francisco hotel, and her cause of death is unknown.
