R.I.P. Heath Ledger

[MARLOWE TIGER]

Maybe the saddest part of Heath Ledger's death, is the fact that he has left behind a little girl. Matilda Rose only had the opportunity to know her father for 2 short years before his untimely death yesterday. Family and friends said that Heath loved Matlida very much and was the epitome of a doting father.
Heath met his the mother of his child and former fiancee Michelle Williams on the set of Brokeback Mountain, in which the two played a married couple. Michelle gave birth to their daughter Matlida on October 28, 2005. Since her birth they had divided their time between Brooklyn, L.A. and Sydney.
Eerily, in an interview conducted with Heath shortly before his death, he said he was okay with dying, because he felt like he could live on through his daughter. And sadly he also added that of course he wanted to stick around because he wanted to see her grow up. Although Matilda Rose is only 2, she already bears a striking resemblance to her father, especially with her fair features.
Now Michelle will have the responsibility of raising little Matilda all by herself. A source close to Michelle told People, "Michelle will have to deal with having a daughter who's lost her father. She's a survivor. She'll make it, but it's going to be hard. Her first concern is going to be Matilda.

Carla Williams, the mother of Heath’s former fiancee Michelle Williams, was spotted in Brooklyn earlier this morning. She was seen leaving the apartment that Michelle shared with Heath and their 2-year-old daughter, Matilda Rose, before the couple separated this past September.

This all just makes me so sad! Especially the pictures of him and Matilda

I read on some horrible gossip site that he was dating Gemma Ward, is this true?

apparently he has been connected to her. not sure why! she is so young.
anyway, i feel so sorry for michelle. i was sure they would eventually get back together. i remember seeing interviews of when they first met and that type of chemistry, no matter what troubles you go through, is irreplaceable.
he is irreplaceable.

I don't know if i'm allowed to post this/if it has already been posted

But a Christian anti-gay group have decided 'Heath Ledger is now in hell' because of his role in Brokeback Mountain and plan to protest over it at his funeral

http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/19627377.html

This is so infuriating. I am Christian myself, but telling other people how you think they should live their lives is just wrong. I hope his death teaches us a) that the media have gone too celebrity crazy b) gay people should not be discriminated against

I respect if you want to delete this post mods, but i am genuine in what i mean

They don't know his relationship with God or how he really died, so they have no place to say that.

I am a Christian and I believe this to be DISGUSTING!! I DO NOT WANT ANY OF YOU GUYS TO BELIEVE THAT ALL CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THAT, BECAUSE WE DON'T! I DON'T. BY PROCLAMING THIS ABOUT HEATH, THEY ARE SINNING AND USING THE NAME OF GOD IN VAIN!! THOSE ARE PEOPLE THAT GIVE CHRISTIANITY A BAD NAME!! (I DO NOT WANT TO START A RELIGIOUS DEBATE, BUT I WANT YOU GUYS TO UNDERSTAND THAT!) I CANNOT STAND THEM

Don't worry, I have nothing against the majority of Christians. My parents, extended family, and ALL of my roommates are Christians. I'm talking about radical Christians (or any radical group even).

I wanted to share some photos... I hope that is ok. If not, feel free to delete. They are all found on Flickr.

I just love how bright his personality was... He was like a light. Once you see that smile, you just have to smile too!

 

[cutxpaste]

he reminded me so much of james dean

I was so genuinely shocked and sad when I heard this - I seriously thought I had heard wrong at first. 28 is too young to die, especially with a little girl who is so young. Its terrible, especially for his family RIP

I am disgusted that his body being carried out of the appartment was filmed and broadcasted. It is so disrespectful.
