In 1966 when Ulla was 19 years old she met Quincy Jones at a party given by TWA in honour of Frank Sinatra in New York. After a whirlwind courtship, Ulla left the 5th Avenue apartment she was subletting from Robert Evans in Manhattan and moved to California to live with Jones. They were soon married and Ulla retired from her modelling career to raise their two children Martina Jones and Quincy Jones III.
The pressures of her husband`s touring and social life caused friction in the marriage as did Ulla`s growing alcoholism and substance abuse problems. After several years of marriage, she took the children and left her husband. She returned to Sweden where she remains today. Although she and Quincy were formally separated, they were not legally divorced until the mid-1970s.
