What she didn't know at the time was that just a few months later she was struggling with depression the actor fatally overdoses on drugs. Even though they were no longer together and Williams was left alone with her daughter, she still believed that Ledger was her soulmate. The actress didn't even want to move out of the house they previously shared. “At that time, I couldn't be comforted. I thought to myself, 'How will he find us?'

Maybe I feel like crying because I feel sorry for the person who thought he wouldn't be able to locate us,” she told WSJ Magazine in 2017.
