Michelle Williams puts in some quality time with daughter Matilda, walking around in NYC.

Matilda’s growing up so fast!

“It’s so sad. I guess it’s always changing. What else can I say? I just wake up each day in a slightly different place – grief is like a moving river … It’s a strange thing to say, because I’m at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It’s just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone. In some ways it gets worse. That’s what I would say.”

Michelle Williams, speaking for the first time about the death of Heath Ledger.

Hooray for new love!

Michelle Williams and Spike Jonze were spotted being all lovey-dovey at Hollywood’s first green club, Ecco Ultra Lounge. I’d never heard of the place, so I checked out their website, and apparently they serve “organic lucid absinthe” which you’re told to “enjoy with caution.” ZOMG. To be 21 and living in LA again. I would enjoy, but not with caution. Hey, it’s organic! I’m helping!

Anyway.

Good to see things going well for Michelle.

That’s what Daily Mail is reporting.

Seven months after the death of Heath Ledger, Michelle Williams has apparently found love again in the arms of director Spike Jonze.

The two were spotted sucking face outside Jonze’s apartment in Manhattan. According to a source: “Michelle kissed Spike with a closed mouth on the corner of his lips. There was definitely a bit of caressing going on. She was clutching his arm. The body language was very romantic.”

Good for Michelle! If this is true, I’m happy to see that she’s moving forward with her life.

In an interview with Elle magazine just days before her former fiance’s death, Michelle Williams spoke about how she struggled through her break-up with Heath Ledger.

“I didn’t know where to go,” she said. “I couldn’t imagine any place in the world that was gonna feel good to me.”

She continues:

“I’m always aware of the whole. I have that feeling inside, like when something really tickles or delights me—it’s not singular. I recognize all the awful things in the world, and in spite of them, I can still laugh. For so long, I felt like a walking open wound everywhere I went. There’s this Joan Didion quote about being afflicted from an early age with a presentiment of loss. Did I come into the world like that? Or was I kind of gifted that?”

Aw, Michelle.

“Please respect our need to grieve privately. My heart is broken. I am the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father. All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day. His family and I watch Matilda as she whispers to trees, hugs animals, and takes steps two at a time, and we know that he is with us still. She will be brought up in the best memories of him.”

Michelle Williams speaks out for the first time about the death of her former fiance and the father of her child, Heath Ledger.

Surprise, surprise.

It looks like Heath Ledger had secretly battled drug and alcohol abuse for quite some time.

In March 2006 – just weeks after the couple walked the Oscars red carpet and when daughter Matilda was only five months old – Williams drove Ledger to Promises Treatment Center in Malibu, California, the confidant tells Us Weekly.

Ledger refused to check in, instead swaying her with a pledge to clean up.

Even after the couple realized “they were in way over their heads,” according to a source, and split in September 2007, two sources tell Us that Williams demanded Ledger be drug-tested before his visitations with Matilda.

Oh, Heath. You’ll be missed.
