182. I liked his knights tale movie. He probably died of natural causes.
It was reported in the news that Olsen was his secret girl friend.
People do believe that stress and diet can lead to a early death.
Plus Heath had a very bad sleeping disorder.
I faced the same problems when I was younger.

183. I thought I was being totally weird in being so sad at Heath's death, but it makes me feel a little bit better that Daniel Day Lewis can express his feelings like that, even if he didn't really know Heath. Also, he's not the type to cash in on something so I believe he is being really genuine.

185. A wonderful actor. A down to earth actor who never let fame sway him, which is very rare nowadays. God bless you and keep you. It's a shame to have to lose such brilliance, but you will never be forgotten. Condolances to your family and most of all your daughter who I'm sure will feel the most pain of being tragically robbed a wonderful father. She won't ever have the gift of having had known him and that it what is most heartbreaking.

186. My heart goes out to the family and friends of Heath, from what i can see he was a wonderful person, now that he is being laid to rest hopefully his family & friends will get some sort of peace from the media and the fans now that they have given him their thoughts and respect.

RIP Heath

187. Mark, I hope you were only joking. The only way that bipolar could possibly come into this would be if he intentionally overdosed. Toxicology says no overdose intentional or otherwise so no suicide so bipolar not a factor. Bipolar is not the answer for everything nor does everyone have it.

188. I wish everyone would just STFU and stop speculating and give this very private man and his family the dignity and privacy they deserve. He was a rare jewel in this world and now he is gone. Let him rest in peace.

192. If all these rumors are true about his drug problem and everyone knowing it, why didnt someone get him help.

I can see michelle taking the baby and leaving but what about everyone else. If these people knew he was in a state of depression why didnt someone say something. I'm sure everyone is feeling a little guilty right now.

To the assistant women whos come out and said he did drugs and michelle was about to take matilda away and that michelle was never in his league. Women you have some nerve. 1st off you need to be fired as an assistant, 2nd off anyone can clearly see Michelle and Matilda was his 2 true loves of his life. You need to keep your comments to yourself.

193. Well, I was so looking forward to watching Heath for years to come. I am so heavy hearted and shocked! In his short cut off career he was amazingly talented and is a hollywood legend in my eyes. He seemed like such a humble, gentle, loving and genuine soul! I am just a fan...I can not imagine the emmense grief that his family and friends are enduring! My heart goes out to his family.....especially his Mom! Bless Matilda's heart, she unfortuneately will not remember what she felt like to be loved and adored by her Daddy! She'll only remember him by pictures and videos.....she'll never FEEL his deep love for her. That is the saddest! I really believe that Heath encompassed his characters completely transforming himself...mind, body and soul. He was AMAZING to watch! I am intrigued and looking forward to seeing him as the Joker! I am sure that role took a toll on such a sweet spirit as Heath seemed to be. I think that he delved into that character and it was haunting his soul. In any event.....he was an awesome actor and he will be incredibly missed! I really wish that the family would have had a public memorial for Heath.....for us fans!! May God be with his family and especially now Matilda!

194. This is for post 182......
If you have been keeping up with the reports it now says that Heath possible could have died from natural causes as the test came back showing that level of toxicity (from medication) in Ledger's system was low enough that it may not have caused his death.......So it was not drug induced and wish people would stop saying that as all the reports so far are going towards them being too low.....I hope that this ends with the drug thing, as everyone was saying that he was not getting sleep and he was ill too and he would have not done that to his daughter......I just wish people would start reading and not listening to rumors about this great actor......Who was loved by many and I know he knew that and as I have said in post before this one he is now an angel himself and can look after all his loved ones.......He will not be forgotten and he will always be loved from the fans that knew he was a real good person and had a lot going for him, also his family and friends also the daughter he so loved which one day she will know how wonderful her dad was.......I am truly sorry for people that have to put rude or untrue things before they are known......RIP Heath may you find the peace you so deserve and now you can also rest knowing you gave so people a part of yourself that will live on.........
