Michelle Williams' Matilda Will Heal Her Heartbreak

March 10, 2008

Michelle Williams got girlie in this month's UK Vogue. The interview took place just a few weeks prior to Heath's death. Who would have ever known her words about heartbreak and being alone would have such a different meaning now. Even though it was just revealed that Heath's will was written prior to dating Michelle and having Matilda, his family has reassured the girls that they will be taken care of. In the lovely Vogue interview, Michelle is honest and humble. She's thankful for her career taking off and allowing that focus to distract her from heartbreak the year has brought her. Here are a few of my favorite quotes:

On Matilda: "She's bigger than any heartbreak could ever be."
"I've only got room for two things — my work and Matilda — and everything else has to take third or eighth position."
"My life is so plain in a way, and baby-centric, I dress in that harried, hurried mum style. I wanted to look girlish, to play-act and tap dance."
On Dawson's Creek: " As a young cast we were lucky that it was shot in North Carolina because it removed all of us from pressure and temptation... we were allowed to develop and f*ck up and mess around without it being news."

Sounds like Michelle is a young actress who has grown up quickly but she remains thankful and grounded. Hopefully her work will keep her busy and strong to raise Matilda to be as successful as her mom.

I LOVE HER.she's so smart, stylish and pretty.. she's beautiful, and NOT Katie Holmes. Michelle has a beautiful face, brains, and personality... Definitely not like KH.

Beautiful pictures and great quotes. She's a rare breed in Hollywood: intelligence, strength and integrity.

she looks GREAT in the mag...i'm so glad that she's out there doing things..even if it was shot prior to everything happening. i also think that it's great that his parents are soo warm and loving towards the girls.. not that she really has to worry about supporting matilda - but it's good to know that his parents want the best for both her and michelle.

I love Michelle Williams. Didn't think much of her on Dawson's Creek. But LOVED her in The Baxter and on the cover of Nylon last year. She's beautiful and stylie. I feel so sorry for her and her daughter.

She's anything but plain. Now Katie Holmes, SHE'S plain looking. Williams is very interesting and I love looking at new pictures of her!

Honestly, I wasn't very fond of her during the DC years, and even afterwards. But lately I find it hard NOT to like her because she just seems so committed to her family and her privacy, and she treats acting as something that she really loves to do. She's the kind of person that would still be in it even if she wasn't a celebrity. I really respect that.

I love this woman. She's such an inspiration and she's so strong she probably doesn't realize how much she is though. She's been through a lot of heartbreak but she will make it fine. Like some above said , she is beautiful inside and out.

She's fab. I still feel like there is sadness radiating off her, but she looks all the more beautiful for having gone through everything, and remains focused on Matilda.
