If you take a closer look at the photo, you’ll notice: Matilda Rose bears a certain resemblance to Hollywood star Heath Ledger. The 18-year-old is the daughter of the Australian actor who was found dead in his loft in 2008 at the age of 28.
But Matilda Rose leads a down-to-earth life away from the limelight. That’s why photos of her in public are a rarity.
Matilda inherited Heath Ledger’s entire fortune
Fellow actress Michelle Williams (43) met Heath Ledger on the set of the box office hit “Brokeback Mountain”. The couple separated in 2008, and a few months later Ledger died of an accidental overdose of medication.
The year after his death, Williams spoke to the «Vogue» about her efforts to keep Ledger in memory for his daughter Matilda: “She can get to know her father in so many ways and hear stories about him from his friends and family. These people were a big part of his life and will be a big part of her life too,” Michelle Williams said at the time.
Matilda inherited her father’s entire fortune. “Our family gave everything to Matilda,” Ledger’s father Kim explained to «People»-Magazin. “That was the plan from the beginning when my son died. There was never any debate that Heath’s estate would go to Matilda. We are very close to Michelle and Matilda.”
