Michelle Williams is "devastated" by the death of her former fiance, Heath Ledger.
We're told that "words cannot describe" the pain she is in over the news about the father of her child, Matilda Rose.
We're told she is on a plane heading to NY right now.

211. I would like to give my condolences to Michelle and Matlida and Heaths family and friends, god bless him he was a goodman and a great actor. He will be missed but not forgotten, I love his movie the knights tale it was edge and differnt. I have a two year old son and Iam a disabled veterian and take care of him alot. When Iam gone I hope I am only remember for my good time spent with him and not the negitive things in life. I wish Heath would have gotten to spend more time here with his youg daughter. Iam 36 and I figured I would be gone before Mr. Ledger was. This tragedy has inspired me to be more thankfull for the things I have and the time I have left with my son. God bless you Heath and thanks for the memories Dennis R Hamilton

214. My heart and prayers go out to Michelle & Matilda, as well as Heath's Mom, Dad, and Sister. I can't imagine what each of them is going through at this time. He was such a wonderful talent and he will be missed.

215. I'm always loathe to refer to someone's death as untimely but this one certainly qualifies. When I saw the ticker I was slack-jawed for quite a while because I thought it was a joke. I pray for his family and his child...she'll never know him but he had a few moments of wonderful with her and we should be grateful for that...

216. I was deeply sadden to hear of Heath Ledger's death at the tender age of 28. And I feel for his family ALONG with Michelle and their daugher Matilda Rose! But it has also been said that his death was NOT suicide but accidental and I believe that Michelle has just as much right as anyone else to feel sadden at this time as do his fans. We will miss you deeply Heath and I hope that you rest in peace! And I hope that the photogs leave his family be and let them mourn in private, They truly deserve it. My heart goes out to the Ledger's and Williams families.
Oh and just for the record ..... those of u who r blaming this on Michelle ..... Heath had moved on .... he had a girlfriend.

217. OMG, this is just so sad. I don't know what to say--- I'm so sorry for her, Matilda, his family, friends and loved ones.
I can't imagine how it would be knowing that the father of your child passed away. Words really can't describe how sad I feel. But that won't bring Heath back. I really wish with all of my heart that I could...
This made me realize even more how much I love my boyfriend. Cherish every day like it was the last one, cause it just might be... We should all take care of our loved ones and be good people.
To all of Heath's loved ones, be strong! He still lives in your hearts and memories and always will.
I bet he's looking after and taking care of all of you from above. He seemed like such a loving man, amazing father and actor.
Rest in peace, Heath. You are loved by so many people across the whole world.

218. I am so sorry for your loss. May your memories be of the loving times you had with Heath and the man you loved. You are so lucky to have such love and have a very special daughter between you. May you share with her the wonderful times you had with her father. It is sad he was taken so young. B ut I'm sure you will let her know how wonderful her father was. Stay strong and be blessed that you knew the real Heath and share that with your daughter.

219. When death comes knocking at the door of someone so young and vibrant, it strikes fear in most of us whether we know it or not...it reminds us that death doesn't pass any of us by. Heath will always live on in the memories of those that loved him. I feel the most sad for his daughter as her memories will be through the memories of others. My sympathies to the family. A thought...A few years ago, a relatively healthy coworker had come home from being on a cruise during which it turns out he had developed a case of some type of pneumonia and he died in his sleep that same night so it is not improbable that something similarily tragic could have happened here. A comment I have otherwise is that I hope what the housekeeper heard was actual snoring and not Heath gasping for air in his last moments. It'll never be known if reacting sooner could have made a difference. It's all too sad!

221. Just watching tv, I turn on my computer to "yahoo.com" and see Heaths tragedy, and i think.... WTF? This (to me) in instance to all that "have" died throughout hollywood, is by far the most upsetting.. Heath was a FABULOUS actor, a great father(as i've seen and heard), and just living life... It REALLY pissed me off about Jack Nicholson's comment saying that "I told him so" Like he was some doctor unaffected(publically) by his death(not saying he wasn't though), saying things about how dangerous sleeping pills were from having bad Insomnia, I've taken all sleeping pills(listed) in the past as I myself still am dealing with my own bad case of "natural insomnia." The truth for ALL whom are thinking of getting on these pills, Ambien to me just made me see about 5 instances of the same thing as if the ambien pill(s) made you sort of "trip vividly." Everytime I took the Ambien/Seroquel/etc none of them worked for me, I just became oddly but annoyingly a "non-sleeper." I guess this comes natural to people that play the joker, Insomnia that is... From the first joker to the new revenous joker and the way that Christopher Nolan said Heath performed him, a "newer" darker, more everything you'd expect from the comic books OPPOSITE that of the "first Joker" that Jack N. played. Heaths Joker is more cut-loose, more sinister and as Heath said, it's NOT about the smile, but about his....eyes... Heath did a great job as the new joker and anybody wanting to challenge that go watch to movie this july and SHUT UP from making stupid comments saying he wouldn't make a great joker/etc because in reality, everyone is "fit" to play any role they'd like, if a woman can play in a movie as a MAN then heath sure as hell can be the joker and do a DAMN GOOD job at it! ALL of my thoughts are with the Ledger family and to his daughter and his ex-fiance Michelle. I didn't know Heath in person, but if I would have, one guarentee is he'd still be alive, sleeping pills are bad, if you can't sleep find out what is stressing your mind from sleep, do anything, except sleeping pills....
Heath you were a great guy and actor and will be missed world wide, I will especially miss the great adaptation of films you've blended into, but overall I miss what movies you would have been in, as to remembering Heath, he was the man and always will be!
We all die one day, But we don't have to die from sleeping pills that "god complexed" doctors/psychitrist have us on, watching us loop around life like a gerbil or some lab rat. It would also be great if they had more accurate and better warning labels to prevent mixture of deadly combinations, which seems to be what Heath didn't have, is that the pills he had, when taken in certain mixtures were... appearently deadly...
