Heath Ledger

The mother of the late Heather Ledger’s daughter, Michelle Williams is covering the October issue of Vogue looking beautiful and fresh.
In the interview, Michelle confirms that she and her director/beau, Spike Jonze (Where The Wild Things Are) have ended their relationship.
“The timing was impossible,” she admits. “I thought falling in love again was the only thing that was going to save me from the pain. This erroneous idea: It just makes things more complicated.”
This was Michelle’s firs relationship since Heath Ledger died. It’s been a long, painful healing process for the single mother. Raising Heath’s daughter, Matilda without him is a challenge.
“I was holding it together by a string and a paper clip in the fall and winter. I didn’t know if I could keep it all together … You console yourself by saying it’s all a deepening process. But it’s weird. After the first year, the pain is less intense — it’s less immediate. But the magical thinking goes away too. And that’s a whole new reckoning.”
“I didn’t know what my boundaries were for a long time, which made interviews feel very unsafe. I can talk about grief, because that’s mine; about single parenting; about trying to balance work and kids. But what I don’t have to talk about is what happened between Heath and me in our relationship.”
Pick up the October issue of Vogue to read the entire, touching interview. I give kudos to Michelle. I think she’s a wonderful mom and I know she will find a new love in her life, one that fits like a glove.
