Michelle Williams has revealed that she is still struggling to cope with ex-fiance Heath Ledger's sudden death.

She said:

‘It's so sad. I just wake up each day in a slightly different place — grief is like a moving river.

'It's just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone — in some ways it gets worse,’ she told Newsweek magazine.

'It burns a fire inside of me, the s*** that I've seen people do to get at me or my daughter,' she said.

'I won't forget it and I won't support it. I don't want to see my daughter growing up feeling spied on or threatened.

'If it gets to the point where I can't situate my life in a way that they stay away more, then I'll drop a match on the thing.’

'Spike had a gentle way of just being there for Michelle. There was no pressure for her to spend time with him – he just wanted to be a loving, supportive shoulder for Michelle to cry on.
