Tali continued to pay tribute to her boyfriend, “All the love that has been sent to me is giving me the strength to get through this. I know that he is so-so happy that I was safely rescued”, she wrote. “Let us honor & celebrate this lovely soul & keep following the light (sic)”.
“The body matches the description of Mr. Ian Jones“, Captain John Watterson said in a statement on Monday.
As TMZ reported, a body was spotted in an alcove near a yacht club a few miles from where Tali and Ian were kayaking over the weekend.
Annie Lennox’s daughter, Tali Lennox-Fruchtmann, confirmed the death of her boyfriend, Ian Jones. This was set to end on August 27th and after meeting Tali soon after leaving prison it had seemed like the photographer and IMG model had managed to deal with his demons and was in a stable relationship with the artists. Fruchtmann was rescued soon after the kayak rolled, but Jones remained missing until yesterday. The autopsy revealed no injuries or trauma to Jones’ body, and the findings are consistent with drowning.
But according to The Daily Mail, Jones has a history of trouble with alcohol, often with criminal outcomes. His girlfriend Tali Lennox (l.) survived.

Lennox posted a shot to Instagram after Jones’ body was pulled out of the river. There are no signs of foul play and his drowning is considered an accident, the sheriff’s department said. Fruchtmann’s mother is Annie Lennox, a Scottish singer who first gained success with Dave Stewart as the Eurythmics in the 1980s.
