New light has been shed on Heath Ledger's last days. The actor's mentor Terry Gilliam told Vanity Fair that as the romance between Ledger and Michelle Williams began to unravel, it was the custody battle "that really made Heath snap."
"Because he's a much nicer person than I am, he really thought he could do the right thing. He was trying to be decent and graceful, give [Williams] whatever she wanted--the house, every f***ing thing. But once it started going south, it went very quickly. He was overwhelmed by lawyers, and there were more and more of them, as if they were breeding," Gilliam said in the August issue of Vanity Fair, on newsstands July 7.
Despite friends' advice to end things with Williams, Ledger wouldn't listen. "I said, 'This is bulls***. Heath, just end it. Get out--it's bad. You've got to just walk away from it.' The stakes kept going up. He wouldn't listen to any of us," Gilliam added.
'The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus' cinematographer Nicola Pecorin saw that Ledger was devoted to keeping his daughter safe and did everything he could to stay together with Williams -- even though he slowly started to unravel. "Heath was always blaming himself, asking, 'What did I do wrong?,'" Percorin said.
