One month after his father’s death, Jones shared that he was expecting his first child and the music legend’s first grandchild. ‘1 month since dad died today. Made this card for him at Christmas.,’ Jones tweeted. ‘Due in June. Circle of life. Love you, granddad.’
Speaking about his father’s death on the Nerdist podcast in May, Jones said: "I’m OK, I’m good. I was very fortunate, we got a chance to say our goodbyes. It’s a weird one for me, I don’t really know how to talk about it or what to say about it – other than the fact that we got a chance to say our goodbyes."

"Weird things make me miss him, but it’s still early days. I’m sure I always will, but it’s tricky. He was a big gravitational pull in my life as far as who I saw myself as. How I separated myself from the world and how I saw myself,” he added. “It’s bittersweet because right now my wife is very pregnant and she’s due in June."
