Michelle Williams Photos & Pics Archive

Forbes put together a list of Hollywood's most influential celeb kids, and although many names were completely expected (hello, #1 - Suri Cruise), there were more than a few surprises!

Click below to see who made the list and who we think was completely robbed!

Every time we see Michelle Williams, we get a little sad. But then we remember how strong and talented she is - and it's impossible not to notice how beautiful!

Here's the actress on the red carpet for the New York Film Festival last night, promoting her latest flick Wendy and Lucy. At the very least, Michelle must be happy that her daughter Matilda will be completely taken care of...

Move over Angie and Natalie... Michelle Williams has arrived!

For the first time since Heath Ledger's death, the beautiful and talented young actress graced the red carpet in a vintage Chanel dress (she has two films showing at the festival - Wendy and Lucy and Charlie Kaufman's Synecdoche, New York). Simply stunning!

Also in attendance was Benicio Del Toro (who took home the Cannes Best Actor award this year for playing Che in the Steven Soderbergh film) at a showing for What Just Happened? - personally, we're more excited to see him play The Wolf Man!

Us is reporting that a forlorn Michelle Williams arrived in Australia with her daughter Matilda to lay Heath Ledger to rest.

Williams kept her profile as low as possible upon deplaning, quickly carrying Matilda (and Matilda's prized stuffed bunny) out of the airport.

Williams refused to comment to reporters about the plans for Ledger's funeral.

Drugs may not have played a role in Heath Ledger's untimely demise - but it's starting to sound like they played a frighteningly huge one during his life!

Us Magazine is reporting that back in 2006, Ledger's fiancee Michelle Williams actually drove the troubled actor to the famous Promises rehab center - only for Heath to refuse to be admitted once they arrived!

A source close to the story told the magazine that Williams had borne witness to Ledger partaking in all sorts of druggy delights, "including cocaine, heroin and "a variety of pills."

Of course, when confronted with the check-in desk at Promises, Heath suddenly seemed capable of stopping, swearing to Michelle that he'd clean up his act.

Apparently, even Heath's young daughter Matilda - then only five months old - couldn't curb his appetite for destruction.

Maybe that's why, when the couple split up in 2007, Michelle demanded that Heath be drug-tested before his visits with Matilda!

We expected poor Michelle Williams to be rocked by the loss of Heath Ledger - but it sounds like the actress may need even more time to recover than we thought!

People is reporting that plans for filming Blue Valentine, Williams' next movie, have been suspended while she copes with Heath's death.

"We will hold off until she is ready," a source connected with the film told the mag. "The production is in the process of sorting it out in respect to her."

Production, originally set to start on February 25th, has been pushed back indefinitely.

"We're hoping she will still come back and do the film and are happy to wait," the source says. "The film is tailor made for [Williams and co-star Ryan Gosling] so of course we would want to wait. You can't get much better than them."

Poor Michelle - we'd hate to hurry along her grieving process, but we sincerely hope she's able to come back from this tragedy sooner rather than later!

After hearing the devastating news of Heath's passing, Michelle William's mom Carla and her best friend, actress Busy Phillips (who is also Matilda's godmother), rushed to Michelle's Brooklyn home in anticipation of Michelle and Matilda's arrival from a film shoot in Sweden early Wednesday morning.

Michelle's mom is visibly upset as photogs offer their condolences.

It's nice to know that during this difficult time, Michelle and Matilda are surrounded by friends and loved ones.

The news of Heath Ledger's unexpected death is very, very upsetting. He was a fantastic actor, known for his work in films like Brokeback Mountain and the upcoming The Dark Knight.

Take a look back at these pictures of Heath from the past few years... more pix below the cut...

The NY Post is reporting that Michelle Williams and The Notebook's Ryan Gosling were spotted on a date in New York last week.

After splitting with fiance Heath Ledger a few months ago, is Mathilda's mom ready to move on?

Their reps claim the dinner was business, not pleasure, but onlookers claim to have observed the pair "smiling and gazing" at each other and sharing a "cozy cigarette"!

We spotted Michelle Williams in New York yesterday looking grumpy as ever. And while it's nice to see this lovely actress out and about - as opposed to hearing about another of her ex Heath Ledger's sexcapades - she could at least pretend to smile!

Most of you had this scorchingly hot Labor Day weekend off, but the offices of X17 were hard at work bringing you the latest in celebrity gossip! What were our favorite BFF's up to? Hmm, let's see...

After much speculation, our girl Britney showed up in Vegas to host the opening of LAX nightclub, and guess what? She ended up sticking around - despite reports to the contrary - until the next morning!

On a more somber note, Owen Wilson finally returned home this Sunday night - curiously without any bandages - after a brief hospital stay. The actor is currently recovering from a reported suicide attempt, and we wish him well.

Brangelina meanwhile took Venice by storm! In town for the film festival - Brad has a movie opening there - the sensational couple showed off their beautiful (and soon to be expanded?) brood. Kinda looks like Angie would rather be back in Iraq, though.

Mary-Kate Olsen had a pretty wild Friday night herself - complete with "humping and grinding" and making out with "questionable men," according to an eyewitness! Surprising? Nah, I knew that's how MK likes to party!

Opting to be a bit more civilized, Jessica Simpson went out to dinner in a sexy dress, but managed to pull a Cameron Diaz with her controversial deer-horn-handled purse. Quite the faux pas, Jess!

And in couple news, Heath and Michelle called it quits, but after a whirlwind courtship, Grey's Anatomy star Kate Walsh got hitched! (Britney, on the other hand, did NOT!)

Us Weekly is reporting that Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams have split. "The relationship had been rocky recently... they just grew apart."

What is going on! I actually thought this couple would last. (Of course, I thought the same thing about Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, but who didn't?) They're both good actors, they look good - most of the time, at least - and they have a beautiful daughter named Mathilda. Well, let's hope the two can stay amicable for the sake of the kid. Good luck to 'em!

Today might be the biggest day in mainstream film, but yesterday was the biggest day in indies! Heath & Michelle, Lucy Liu and Daniel Craig were just a few of the stars who walked the blue carpet yesterday at the Film Independent Spirit Awards. I know the Spirit Awards are a much more laid-back affair than the Oscars (they're on a tent at the beach, hosted by potty-mouthed comedian Sarah Silverman...) but what's up with Heath's filthy shoes and crazy pockets?

Heath and Michelle have been spotted out and about wearing wedding rings, sparking rumors that the longtime couple (who met on the set of Brokeback Mountain and have a daughter, Matilda, together) have wed in secret. The couple, who have already applied for a wedding license, are notoriously private, so it wouldn't come as any surprise if they had married in secret!
