In a touching interview on Nightline, Michelle Williams opened up about the death of her former love, Heath Ledger, more than two years after his death
It’s been more than two years since the father of her child, Heath Ledger, suddenly passed away, but Michelle Williams finally opened up about losing her former love during an interview on Nightline Dec. 21.
“In a strange way, I miss that year, because all those possibilities that existed then are gone,” she said. “It didn’t seem unlikely to me that he could walk through a door or could appear behind a bush. It was a year of very magical thinking, and in some ways I’m sad to be moving further and further away from it.”
Heath and Michelle met while they were shooting the now-legendary film, Brokeback Mountain and later had a daughter, Matilda, together.

Yeesh to the posters before, she has a RIGHT to talk about Heath, and it makes total sense that she has tender feelings towards his memory, she is the mother of his child. If my husband and I split up, and then he died, I would not only be sad for my own loss, (my companion in raising them, whether if it were together or not) but I would be devastated for my childrens loss, you cannot REPLACE daddy. (well, not a genuinely loving one. I know there are alot of flakes out there these days, but even most of them have their childrens undying affection)
They were very private people, there was no indication from either of them after they broke up that they detested each other to the core, she could have still been his friend, and why wouldn’t she have been? it would make total sense given that they have a child together. Obviously you people don’t understand that when you have children, as parents, if you genuinely care about the KIDS’ best interest, you get along. So leave the woman alone, she hardly spouts random heath-isms just to get noticed, the only time I have ever heard her respond to anything Related to the topic of him, is when she is ASKED by a reporter, and its usually vague. She is as entitled to her emotions as anyone, in some cases MORE so, she is the one after all, who is going to have to answer all the “daddy” questions, and keep his memory alive for a child who might not otherwise even remember him.
