Michelle Williams is still struggling to find meaning in the passing of ex-husband Heath Ledger. In an interview with Nightline that aired last night, the Blue Valentine star said: “I can find meanings in things and people and relationships that have sprung up and friendships that have strengthened. I found a lot of meaning in that… but not in ‘why.’” Michelle Williams – Nightline Interview Williams battled back tears at many points in the discussion, touching on a range of subjects that included the months that followed Ledger’s death, as well as the state of the couple’s child, Matilda. Excerpts are below. On the years after his death : “In a strange way, I miss that year, because all those possibilities that existed then are gone. It didn’t seem unlikely to me that he could walk through a door or could appear behind a bush. It was a year of very magical thinking, and in some ways I’m sad to be moving further and further away from it.” On providing Matilda with a normal childhood : “It’s going well. We’re doing a good job of it. It is of more importance to me than anything in my life. I would rearrange anything to make that possible. If something starts to encroach on that it’s going to be removed from the equation.”
