This is very unfortunate. It goes to show how money can turn peoples' lives upside down when a loved one passes.

He could have avoided all of this, but no...this entire mess is a direct result of the stupid choices he made in life.

Prat.

Doesn't it strike you as funny that he wrote a will when he was, what, 23-24, naming his parents, but did not write a will when he was 27-28 naming his child? I am not convinced at all that he did not have an updated will.

I wonder about that too. It seems for awhile he wasn't really using Ted-speak and I thought they had hired a ghost writer for him. I can't figure out why Ted is harping on this point so much. Certainly, any father with some forethough would have had a will for his child but Ted keeps beating a dead horse. Maybe he hit on Heath once and was turned down.

It is odd, but he was also just THAT much further along in his addictions and the details might not have mattered.

LOTS of people die intestate. It's actually quite common, much more common that most people realize. It's unfortunate, but Ledger isn't exactly alone in his lack of attention to detail.

Why does Ted Casablanca have it with Heath? Can anybody post what he said previously about him? (he mentions something about everybody wanting him to drop the subject...)

The little girl is so cute
