Isabelle Thomas, a talented documentary filmmaker and wife of movie producer Bradley Thomas, recently met with a devastating fate that no family wishes to face. Her mother, Penelope Lawrence, opened up about the nightmare they are currently living. Isabelle tragically fell to her death from a Los Angeles hotel, as confirmed by the Los Angeles Medical Examiner, who listed the manner of death as suicide.
The heart-wrenching incident occurred on Monday, leaving Isabelle’s loved ones shattered. Isabelle was an integral part of the Thomas family, having been married to Bradley since 2018. Her mother, who resides in the UK, expressed her plans to travel to Los Angeles as soon as possible to be with her grieving family.
The Los Angeles Police Department disclosed that Isabelle jumped from the roof of the Hotel Angeleno in Brentwood, California, around 1:20 pm. This unimaginable tragedy has left her family and friends in deep sorrow.
Isabelle’s loved ones shared a profound statement, stating, “Isabelle was the light of our lives. She was courageous and embraced life’s opportunities fearlessly. Along her journey, she showered love and kindness on her friends, family, and children.” Isabelle’s family emphasized that she did not leave behind a suicide note, according to TMZ.
Born in Bath, England, in 1984 and a graduate from Oxford with a degree in biological sciences, Isabelle grew up in the Cotswolds alongside her older brother, Christopher Lawrence. She later relocated to Los Angeles to pursue her passion for filmmaking. Her diverse projects reflected her curiosity about people and culture, inspiring everyone fortunate enough to know her.
Isabelle’s father, Sir Henry Lawrence, 7th Baronet of Lucknow, expressed his devastation, stating, “I have absolutely no idea why this happened or what was troubling her. It is so awful.” Isabelle leaves behind twin daughters, Poppy and Grace, whom she shared with Bradley, as well as stepchildren Lucy and Charlie.
Isabelle and Bradley were recently seen on the awards trail, promoting Martin Scorsese’s film, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” which received 10 Oscar nominations last week. They attended the yearly BAFTA Tea Party in Beverly Hills before the tragic incident occurred.
Isabelle’s family extended their gratitude for the overwhelming support they have received in the wake of her sudden death. They encouraged open conversations about mental health issues and urged individuals to reach out to their loved ones and professionals for support. The Sun has launched the “You’re Not Alone” campaign, emphasizing the importance of helping those struggling with mental health issues.
