Michelle Williams is the cover girl for the October 2009 issue of Vogue. She talks about Heath Ledger and her daughter, Matilda. Here are the highlights from the interview:
On boundaries: “I didn’t know what my boundaries were for a long time, which made interviews feel very unsafe. I can talk about grief, because that’s mine; about single parenting; about trying to balance work and kids. But what I don’t have to talk about is what happened between Heath and me in our relationship.”
Coping after Ledger’s untimely death: “I was holding it together by a string and a paper clip in the fall and winter. I didn’t know if I could keep it all together… You console yourself by saying it’s all a deepening process. But it’s wired. After the first year, the pain is less intense; it’s less immediate. But the magical thinking goes away too. And that’s a whole new reckoning. But every time I really miss him and wonder where he’s gone, I just look at [Mathilda.]”
The happy times: “‘Brokeback Mountain’ was an unrepeatable moment in time, a very charmed time in my life. I was in love; I was in a movie I was proud to be a part of, and with a beautiful brand-new baby. Everything was good in that moment.”
Dealing with the paparazzi presence: “It’s because of this tragedy that there’s more paparazzi. That is hard to be graceful and understanding about… It’s hard to be the man and the woman in that [paparazzi] situation. Heath always used to do that for us.”
Falling in love: “I thought falling in love again was the only thing that was going to save me from the pain. This erroneous idea: It just makes things more complicated.”
What the future holds: “I feel hopeful and grateful. For a while I thought we had lost everything. It makes you want to love better and liver better.”

Ryan Gosling was spotted on the set of his new movie, Blue Valentine. (I feel special since it has my last name in it.) And I have to say even though he’s smoking he is still hot to me.
He is starring in the movie with Michelle Williams. It’s a movie about a marriage that is falling apart and the couple starts looking at the happier times of their marriage. Another romance. *Sigh*

Michelle Williams was seen with her daughter, Matilda, and a friend walking on the streets of Brooklyn after buying a coffee on Friday. I finally broke down yesterday and bought my son Ugg type boots. But they are in the shape of cowboy boots. There’s no way he’s wearing them out in the snow! I can’t believe I caved into the pressure!

Michelle Williams and daughter, Matilda, went for an early coffee run yesterday in New York. How cute is Matilda getting?? Also, Heath Ledger’s insurance claim was settled and Matilda gets $10 million for his death. I’m glad it finally worked out in a positive way for Matilda. I’m sure that’s one thing now that Michelle doesn’t have to think about now.

A year ago today, January 22nd, life changed. I know for many it did. Heath Ledger died in his apartment while he was sleeping. This year has been tough for many people trying to deal with his death. He really died way too soon. His daughter, Matilda, deserved a father.
I watched The Dark Knight finally last month. I couldn’t get over how amazing he was…well, I knew all along but he was beyond what I thought. I really hope he continues winning awards for his performance because he was ALL that.
I took his death hard. I’m not sure why…maybe because he was at the top of his game, and he was a dad. Being a parent makes me really think of a lot of things differently. I even did something for him that I will never forget. I was getting this sun tattooed on my wrist. The tattoo artist was talking to me about Heath and how he had done a tattoo for him too. So in memory of Heath he put dots around the sun. So everytime I look at my wrist I can remember Heath in my own way without anyone knowing.
R.I.P. Heath…you are missed just as much as the day you left.
