New details about the relationship between Heath Ledger and Mary-Kate Olsen!

People is reporting that the pair were dating for the three months prior to the actor's death, though not exclusively.

And, quite tellingly, they shared a strong bond: they both loved to pAArty, says the mag.

"Mary-Kate and Heath were casually dating for three months before Heath's death," a source tells People. "They were hooking up, but neither were particularly interested in making it exclusive."

The pair first met over the summer of 2006, when ledger was still with Michelle Williams, but at the time he was living at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood.

As for what drew the two together, says the source, "They had a bond that was based on partying, and they had the same tastes in partying … like, in terms of where they liked to hang out in New York, what time they would want to go out. They just had the same sensibility."

Uh huh!

I would like to think that Heath didn't do drugs, but if he was dating Mary-Kate, no telling what he was on! And I heard that prior to their dating, they were like best friends…

Why else would he date her unless he was partying? She's fucking disgusting and any guy would have to be high to fuck her. She doesn't even bathe. It just goes to show you that millions can't buy class. Troll cunt.

i wonder if she will say anything about it….though i think its irrelevant. its not like they had a real connection, it was obviously superficial, but i'm sure she's still reeling from it just like all of us who never even knew him.

r.i.p heath,
i think people need to leave his personal life alone and concentrate on how to help his family.
he isnt here to defend himself,
and im sure when his daughter grows up
she's not going to like things that people are saying so leave his personal life alone

Well if he died from drug overdose, she's gotta be doing the same stuff I'd imagine. I really wanted to believe she wasn't doing that but this says otherwise.

I remember seeing her at Blockbuster a while back and I knew she was on something. However, she is 21. Weren't we all on something in college? I thought it was just pot. Considering she grew-up in LA, as I did, it is not really a big deal. It is no different than smoking cigarettes. When they sent her to anorexia rehab, I thought it was drugs and partying. I think it is very difficult to be under the public eye for every little thing. It is part of being in that age group to party. When Lohan got herself in all that trouble, I thought I have done some crazy shit out of youth and stupidity. Who is to say that it problem, it could very well be growing pains. Really think about it. People pretend to be so prude and square. Truth is we were all 21 once.

92

Its really quite said that everyone comes along with this he said she said crap after someone in the lime light dies untimely. Really first and foremost…. Heath Ledgers daughter, family, friends and loved ones are grieving. Why cant we as a society respect that and give them all time to mourn without hearing all the stories. Unfortnatley no one will ever truly know what was going on inside heath Ledgers head, nor what he was feeling or dealing with at the time of his death. Just let the young gifted man that was taken from us too soon Rest In Peace and let those who REALLY knew him and understood him mourn for the loss of their loved one.
RIP Heath Ledger.
