Ledger’s father blames his son for death
Heath Ledger’s father blames his son for his death last year of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.
Racing car driver Kim Ledger believes Heath, who died in January 2008 at just 28, is accountable for his death because he was not carefully monitoring his medication.
“We’re all responsible for what goes into us and I blame Heath for not being responsible,” Kim said. At the time of his death, Heath allegedly mixed medication prescribed to him by three different doctors (coughMichaelJacksoncough).
The recent death of Michael Jackson from a suspected cardiac arrest with a load of prescription drugs involved has brought back the memories, said Kim.
He told Australia’s Women’s Day magazine: “On the day that Michael died I spoke to my daughters and former wife Sally and we all had such a down day.”
Kim has offered his condolences to the late pop star’s family and said he can empathize with their situation.
“Heath and Michael were both very private and as the closest people to them, you want to protect that. We found ourselves asking each other, ‘Would Heath have done it this way?’ If not, then we weren’t going to either,” said Kim.
“It’s not for me to advise the Jackson family how to get through this, but what I will say is the saddest times are now, one-and-a-half years later. The media interest has died down, so I’m no longer surrounded by Heath and all I want to do is pick up the phone, but I can’t.”
