“Please respect our need to grieve privately. My heart is broken," Williams, 27, said in a statement released on Friday by Ledger's rep, Reuters reports.
"I am the mother of the most tender-hearted, high-spirited, beautiful little girl who is the spitting image of her father," Williams continued in her statement.
"All that I can cling to is his presence inside her that reveals itself every day.
"His family and I watch Matilda as she whispers to trees, hugs animals, and takes steps two at a time, and we know that he is with us still.
"She will be brought up with the best memories of him," Williams' statement concluded. (See photos of Ledger doting on his daughter here.)
When Williams first learned about his tragic death, "she cried and screamed as soon as she heard," a source on the Swedish set of her latest film, Mammoth, tells Us Weekly in its new issue, now on stands.
