Williams speaks about Heath

Michelle Williams has opened up about Heath Ledger‘s death from an accidental drug overdose in 2008.

The actress, who has a five-year-old daughter Matilda from her relationship with the late actor, said she coped with the loss by reading The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion.

“It didn’t seem unlikely to me that he could walk through a door or could appear behind a bush,” she explained in an interview with the US NightLine program.

“It was a year of very magical thinking, and in some ways I’m sad to be moving further and further away from it,” she said.
