Michelle Williams is “devastated” by the death of her former fiance, Heath Ledger.
She told that “words cannot describe” the pain she is in over the news about the father of her child, Matilda Rose.
She is on a plane heading to NY right now.
Friends and neighbors of Heath Ledger say they were shocked to hear about the sudden death of the actor, whom they had recently scene happy and healthy.
The 28-year-old Australian actor has been found dead in his New York apartment. Police suspect the death was drugs-related.
But Heath Ledger’s family has denied he killed himself, a report said.
Representatives of the family said police had advised them his death was entirely accidental, the TMZ.com website reported.
The site said representatives had made contact to say the Australian actor’s family was particularly distraught over media speculation that he may have taken his own life.
He was not that kind of person, the family said.
Ledger’s family are cut up by the young Australian actor’s death.
On Wednesday, family members gathered at his mother’s house in the leafy southern Perth suburb of Applecross as they struggled to come to terms with their loss.
A man, believed to be Ledger’s stepfather, told reporters the family was “cut up” by the death.
TMZ also reported that Ledger was sick with pneumonia when he died in New York on Tuesday.
Julie McIntosh, a stylist who works at Devachan beauty salon next door to Heath’s building, and who was a friend of Heath’s, tells Life & Style, “This came as a shock to all of us. He seemed so happy. He had everything going for him.”
“The last time I saw him was last week. He was by himself. He looked really good.” “He was such a nice guy. Every time he walked by, he was always pleasant and always said hello. He’d always say, ‘Hey! What’s up?’ “I’d see him with his daughter, wheeling her in the stroller, all the time. I also saw him walking around a lot with his friend Elijah Wood. This is just all so shocking.”
Shortly after Heath’s body was carried out of the building in a black body bag around 6:30 p.m., Tomba Massa, the superintendent of the building where Heath lived, told Life & Style, “I rented the apartment to Heath four months ago. The last time I saw him was two months ago. I saw him often with his daughter. He was always really nice and friendly. I never had any problem with him with the rental.”
