Heath Ledger’s Sisters Speaks About Rumours Of His Death

Everyone thought that essaying the role of The Joker in 'The Dark Knight' contributed the death of Heath Ledger. Many feel that his obsession to get to the role of The Joker took a dark toll on him, and led to his death. He died at the age of 28 on January 22, 2008 due to an accidental mixture of prescription drugs.

However, his sisters have something else to say. Putting an end to all rumours, Heath Ledger’s sisters Kate Ledger and Ashleigh Bell opened up about the cause of his death after attending the premiere of 'I Am Heath Ledger' at Tribeca Film Festival on April 23. "He wasn't depressed about The Joker. Honestly it was the absolute opposite. He had an amazing sense of humour, and I guess only his close family and friends really knew that. But he was having fun," Kate said.

They have even said that they were shocked to see the news circulating around the time of his death. "It was coming out that he was depressed and it was taking a toll, and we were going, 'What?'" Ashleigh said. Heath even won the Best Supporting Actor trophy at the 81st Academy Awards for playing the role of The Joker.
