Heath Ledger had a big time drug problem

The elephant in the room that most of the media seems to be glossing over is that Heath Ledger had a big time problem with drugs. Entertainment Tonight killed a video they reportedly bought for $200k that showed Ledger snorting coke at the Chateau Marmont in 2006. A member of Ledger's entourage told the New York Post that cocaine and heroin broke up the star's marriage to Michelle Williams:

"[Michelle] couldn't take it any more. Heath wouldn't show up for two to three days, and all of a sudden he would show up on her doorstep, an absolute wreck. He was partying, doing drugs. She didn't like the company he was keeping. She gave him an ultimatum. . . . and threatened to get custody of [their daughter Matilda]. He wanted to make it work, but it was this scene he was wrapped up in. Was he an addict? Yeah. He was hanging out with a bad crowd. He wasn't cleaning up his act. He was making absolutely no effort . . . He was really into heroin. He wasn't sleeping or communicating with anyone." (Source)

I can't really blame Heath. Coke and heroin are an absolute bitch. Drove me out of competitive scrapbooking. To tell you the truth I don't miss it . . . except for Nationals. God what a thrill.
