Her family mourned her loss in a public statement, saying:

"Jill Messick was a mother of two children, a loving wife and partner, a dear friend to many and a smart entertainment executive. She was also a survivor, privately battling depression which had been her nemesis for years. Today she did not survive. Jill took her own life."

They also unequivocally blamed Rose and Harvey — saying Jill "became collateral damage in an already horrific story" as she was caught between the two:
