Heath Ledger’s Family Still ‘Nursing Broken Hearts’

Written by on Thursday, January 22nd, 2009 in Latest News.

Heath Ledger’s family gathered at an Australian beach to remember the actor, who died a year ago and is now being honored with an Oscar nomination for The Dark Knight. “We are still all nursing broken hearts,” older sister Kate Ledger said Friday in Perth. “Like anyone who loses a family member, it has opened our eyes to the intense suffering and painful journey that is death.” Kate and two half-sisters, Ashleigh Bell and Olivia Ledger, stood under clear blue skies at the Indiana Tea Room on Cottesloe Beach, one of Ledger’s favorite spots and the site of his wake after his funeral. Ledger’s father, Kim, and mother, Sally Bell, were also in attendance but did not speak to the media.
