Michelle Williams wants daughter to remember Heath Ledger

By Tribute News on January 29, 2013 | 3 Comments

Although Heath Ledger died of an accidental overdose away five years ago, Michelle Williams wants their daughter, Matilda, seven, to remember her father and has tried to make sure the youngster sees a great deal of the Ledger family. A source told Us Weekly: "Michelle has made it a priority to keep Heath's memory alive. She understands the importance of Matilda having a connection with his family." The Dark Knight actor's parents, Sally and Kim, have recently spoken out about their granddaughter and said she bears a strong resemblance to her late father. His mother Sally Ledger told Australia's New Idea magazine: "Matilda is indeed very much like her dad -- she has long limbs and similar features. However, she also possesses the beauty of her mamma - lucky girl." Matilda's grandfather Kim added: "Matilda has the same walk as Heath and is such a respectful little kid - she calls us 'Papa' and 'Grandma Sal'."

   It’s still so sad about Heath Leger’s death. Matilda seems like such a sweet little girl, and Michelle seems like a great mother. It’s also lovely that Matilda is such a big part of Heath’s family.

   I Wish I could’ve stopped him from using the drugs he used!! What effect is that going to have on his Daughter? I Hope none! It’s very hard to keep thinking he is no longer with us…
