Michelle Williams Speaks!
Michelle Wiliams is speaking publicly for the first time since the tragic death of Heath Ledger.
The grieving actress' publicist released a statement on Friday. It reads:
"Please respect our need to grieve privately. My heart is broken. I am the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father. All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day. His family and I watch Matilda as she whispers to trees, hugs animals, and takes steps two at a time, and we know that he is with us still. She will be brought up with the best memories of him."
Our thoughts are with her.

Anyways, all of this is my own assumption based on just what I have read and seen. The person I feel most sorry for is Matilda. I remember seeing pictures of him & her and thinking how identical they looked. She will never get to know him in true form. Pictures and words cant replace someone's true self. I loved to listen to him speak because of his accent & voice. That is something I will truly miss. I hope that Michelle has the strength to move on & find a really nice guy that will be as good to Matilda as her dad was. Those two have been through so much. RIP Heath. I will forever adore you!
my prayers are with michelle, matilda and the ledger family. i remember seeing an episode of the oprah show, while brokeback mountain was being promoted, you can see how truly in heah and michelle were.
Perez- you really support showing the video on Heath Ledger?!!??
This entire story breaks my heart & I didn't even know him. We cannot even begin to imagine what it is like to deal with this tragedy in front of the entire world.
I think if any of us are true fans, we should respect him and his family to mourn in private.
Poor Matilda Bean. FUCK U COURTNEY WILLIAMS.
Beautifully put by a strong woman/mother who is grieving the loss of someone she loved dearly. My heart goes out to you Michelle. I have an 8 yr old daughter as well who is the spitting image of her father and I cannot fathom the pain and loss you and Matilda are going through. Stay strong girl! My thoughts and blessings are with you and Matilda. RIP Heath. xo.
RIP Heath
Now that you're gone
Your memory lives on
The snow is falling
On the sidewalks of New York
I can remember your bashful smile
How you epitomized chivalry
Your grace and candor stay all the while
They survive in your legacy
I look upon
A new day's dawn
There's flowers lying
On the sidewalks of New York
Humility and charisma endear me
Your elegance was a cut above
Your voice was a source of security
That filled me with both warmth and love
Spring ushers on
A little fawn
The rain is falling
On the sidewalks of New York
Enraptured by your immortality
Your vibrant spirit, so young and wild
And a beauty that strengthens me
It endures in the eyes of a child
hey perez. youre a dumbass. instead of putting this on why dont u fucking take that FUCKING video of heath off?? ITS sTILL THERE DESPITE ALL THE SHIT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT IT AND ABOUT HOW MUCH YOU FUCKING SUCK.
BTW .. EM I TOTALLLY AGREE WITH YOU. perez is a fucking dumb ignorant ass who ignores all the negative comments people make about him. FUCK YOU PEREZ
why the fuck is the child talking to trees???
That whole family is in my prayers! Stay strong!
Re: rolo – are you kidding me? have u ever seen a child play? Kids talk to everything and the youthfulness and carelessness and enjoyment they get out of exploring is the most enjoyable sight. My heart goes out to Michelle, Matilda and Heaths family. I don't know Heath or his family, but we too lost a loved one and know the pain they are going through at this time. Stay strong and remember the good times for your little girl. Her remembering her father as the "superman" she feels he is in her eyes is all that matters. Leave this media stuff float out your ears. Next week Brittany will do something that will make them forget about Heath. And then the rest of the world can remember what we all loved about Heath.
Rolo - Did it ever occur to you that she isn't "talking to trees" but talking to the spirit of her father who is watching over her, bringing her comfort, whom she , as a child, can see when noone else can?
Bless her and that sweet child.
Oh i feel so bad every time i read about Heath i just keep think of little Mathilda and Michelle, but i know that they will be strong, it's a tuff world you are never sure of what i going to happend tomorrow, all i can say that they dident diserv that, no one dose but we can't choose who will live and who will die, thats up to god, all i can say is god bless Heath up there with u and his famly and friends, and of course Mathilda and Michelle, // Ermina
I have new appreciation for Michelle Williams. My heart goes out to her and Matilda
I feel so sad because heath dead, he was a great actor and he love mathilda, I hope michelle wil be strong to help his baby, her words make me cry and she is still in love with heath
I CAN NOT BELIEVE ALL YOU PEOPLE FALLING FOR THIS CRAP, MICHELLE WILLIAMS IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAKE. SHE IS NOT A NICE PERSON. ALOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE KNOW THIS FIRST HAND. THIS IS ALL BULLSHIT CREATED BY HER PUBLIC RELATIONS PEOPLE TO CREAT AN IMAGE AND OR TO KEEP IT GOING, AND MOST OF THESE POSTS ARE EXACTLY THAT.
IT IS WELL KNOWN SHE WAS JUST USING HEATH, ONCE SHE GOT WHAT SHE WANTED SHE DUMPED HIM. NOW SHE HAS HER MEAL TICKET. SAD THING IS MANY PEOPLE WARNED HIM ABOUT HER.
People need to start speaking the truth, this woman has no class.
She used Heath!!! This has got to be the best preformance of her life.
Re: L –
If people need to start telling the truth, why don't you be the first and explain your claims - you seem to be in the know!
#429 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: L – The father of her baby is dead. Why don't you get some class and leave them alone. If you don't like her so much, why do you care? Looking at pictures of them together you can see how madly in love they were with each other.
i almost cried when i read this…..
You can't have it both ways Perez: don't pretend to feel sympathy for Michelle while defending showing Heath's drug video. Yes his drug use was stupid but right now Michelle and Matilda don't deserve more pain.
I am so sorry. It sucks.
Amen to that, Baby.
We loved him too. And speaking for myself, and a few others, we will respect everything you and your family ask. I know what it's like to lose someone that you've loved so desperately and completely, enough to bear his child.. I'd be devastated if I lost mine completely, but I've lost mine to drugs already. I pray it's not a matter of time.
I dunno if you'll read this one day. Maybe you will.
Just know that someone feels the same as you.
With love from Louisiana.
Re: Queens – That was beautiful. Thank you for that. All i could think of was his smile and his humility, and how much I wish I could've just sat down, had a beer with him and discussed life.
A beautiful thing to say. So very very sad. I hope they are left alone.
I can not believe the amount of evil comments posted under this topic. We know there will be spin with the reporting of all aspects of this sad event, but at the end of the day, a woman has just lost a man she obviously loved and a child has lost a much loved father. Surely, if you have one ounce of humanity within you, your heart would go out to those involved? A statement was given to the press because that was what they were asking for and there are some here who criticise that because they feel it's Williams trying to spin the situation to her advantage? Please! That's just bloody stupidity. If you have nothing nice to say and can offer no words of condolence, then don't say anything at all. It's hurtful, disrespectful and simply juvinille. Grow up.
Perez, love the site, but some of your postees need to get a life!
i love michelle williams!
and i loved heath ledger!
and when i heard that he died, i literally started to cry.
just days before his death i was watching "10 things I hate about u", which is one of my favorite movies!
i mean, i didnt know the guy, but i liked him as an actor.
and he looked like a pretty cool human being.
my heart goes out to his whole family!
stay strong!!
stay strong michelle !i love you so much!
I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST SAW HIM IN THE MOVIE '10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU'. I AM SHOCKED AND CRIED AS WE LOST A GOOD SOUL AS HEATH. MAY HE REST IN PEACE.
Classy
That is one of the most touching and genuine things I've ever heard.
What a credit to Heath, her daughter and humankind she is.
My prayers are with them.
she is brave, she seems to have an extreme strong will and her daughter will continue that in her.. my thoughts and prayers go out to her and heaths family RIP heath GOD BLESS!!!!
By the way, prior to Heath's death, Ben Harper (a business associate and friend of Heath's) wrote the following song for Matilda:
Title: Happy Everafter In Your Eyes
By: Ben Harper
the morning sunrise spread her wings
while the moon hung in the sky
held the sea in your hands
and happy everafter in your eyes
happy everafter is in your eyes
couldn't leave you to go to heaven
i carry you in my smile
for the first time my true reflection i see
happy everafter in your eyes
happy everafter is in your eyes
every star in the night
promises the dawn
i will be there if you fall
to ever so heavily rest upon
all that i can give you
is forever yours to keep
wake up every day with a dream
and happyever after in your eyes
happy everafter is in your eyes
I feel horrible for them, but why is Matilda speaking to trees?
Re: giginy –
Because she is a child and children do things like that…. they are wide-eyed, mystified with the world and innocent of the ills of the world, while we are not.
How articulate and elegant a statement to make after going through something like that. God bless her and their child and their families.
Such a graceful and thoughtful statement from Michelle in such a time of unimaginable grief. She is class, personified, just as we think of Heath as being.
Together, they created a beautiful little life. I respect their need for privacy, as well as Michelle's desire for Matilda to know the best of Heath. Such a gift to be able to cherish his life in hers. Our thoughts, prayers, and hearts go out for all of them. RIP, Heath. May comfort and love be with your family.
