==Early life and personal==
Jennifer Judith Jones was born to Larry and Carol Jones who were both curlers. She also has a sister named Heather 18 months older. During her childhood, she was often described as "shy". Larry Jones started teaching Jones when she was 11 although Jones' interest of the sport took up before that, in a daycare at the St. Vital Curling Club. She attended General Vanier School in South Winnipeg from kindergarten to grade 8. After, she attended Windsor Park Collegiate. At that point, Jones was proficient at Volleyball and Curling. "When I was in high school I really had to make a choice and it was actually my volleyball coach who told me I had to choose either volleyball or curling, and I chose curling." she told the CBC. She later attended the University of Manitoba from 1999-2001.
In the University of Manitoba, Jones met Scott Labonte who became her significant other. She earned a B.A. in psychology, economics and law. She later became a lawyer, a corporate counsel for National Bank Financial.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=World champion curler, corporate lawyer )〕 On February 10, 2012, Jones filed a divorce from Labonte citing "no possibility of reconciliation". Jones then started a relationship with former world champion curler Brent Laing from Ontario although it was not publicly known for over a year. They later got engaged to be married. Jones gave birth to her first child, Isabella Laing prematurely on November 13, 2012 in Barrie, Ontario. Although it was a premature birth, the baby was healthy weighing over 3.2 kilograms. "Honestly, she's the best thing that's ever happened to me," she said.
