Michelle Williams says falling in love again didn’t soothe grief

WASHINGTON - Michelle Williams has said that falling in love again did not save her from the pain of losing her late former beau Heath Ledger.

The actress gave birth to the late star’s daughter Matilda, who was just 2 years old when Ledger died last year of an accidental drug overdose.

“After the first year, the pain is less intense; it’s less immediate,” People magazine quoted her telling Vogue.

“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 her,” she added.

The Dawson’s Creek star, who had parted ways from Ledger months before his death, said returning to the dating scene has done little to help her get over the grief.

She continued: “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.” (ANI)
