LATE ENTRY.

Postby Shazzam » Thu Mar 13, 2008 6:32 am

I don't know if many of you know of Heath Ledger but he was a young Australian actor he died in January in Manhatton USA. I was actually in hospital on the date of his death and I haven't had time since to make a post for him. It is so sad he had a beautiful little girl called "Matilda" she is only an infant.

He was such a talent and it is so tragic. The movie that is due to be released that stars him playing the "joker" is another Batman film. Apparently the part he plays is very dark and he put alot of himself into it.

I just wanted to make mention that Australia has lost a great talent, in fact the world has lost a great talent.

My sympathy goes to his family and the mother of his beautiful daughter at this terrible time. :cry:

I didn't know he was from Australia.

You were in hospital, Sharon? What happened? Are you OK?

I was shocked to hear of his death, and I never thought that something like that would happen to him, especially because he was young and talented. :(

It is sad and its going to get worse now that there is a dispute regarding his estate, apparently he didn't change his will before he died and his estate has been left to his parents and his sisters. Lets hope that sanity prevails and that they make the appropriate arrangements to ensure that his daughter "Matilda" is adequately cared for. I'm sure that is exactly what he would have wanted. I was really surprised that he hadn't changed his will after his daughter was born, it was the first thing I thought about with my children. :idea:
