Matilda Ledger Gets a Spike-y Shoulder Ride
Matilda Ledger rides on the shoulders of her mom Michelle Williams’ boyfriend, director Spike Jonze, in Brooklyn, New York City on Monday morning (April 20). Adorable!
A solo Michelle was spotted on the other side of town running errands.
Michelle’s latest critically-acclaimed film, Wendy and Lucy, will be out on DVD on May 5. You can pre-order the flick on Amazon.
10+ pictures inside of Matilda Ledger’s spiky shoulder ride…

Mati is so cute!!! She looks happy and well adjusted.
Michelle does something right. Her girl look happy and healthy!
The pics of her holding onto Spike’s hair are adorable. She’s having a ball, but mom’s not happy to see the paps.

Matilda is SO darn cute!
Looks like Michelle has already found a good father figure for her little girl. Hopefully they will have a very stable life for the little mini-Heath. =)
haha they’re so great
Yes, Matilda is adorable and it’s good to see her happy…at the same time it’s kind of sad though to see her on Spike’s shoulders and not on Heath’s…
Glad to see that Matilda inherited the father’s joy! :)
Michelle always has a sad face!
Oh my goodness Matilda is a beautiful child!
It makes me sad to think that she will never get to ride on her daddy’s shoulders again but no sense in dwelling on it. Spike seems to be doing a great job being a central male figure in her life. This is a sweet set of pictures.
i’m sure Heath is happy watching this,Spike is such a cool dad.

Silly you. No celeb is happy to see the paps, unless it is someone whose career is staggering.
To have such a solemn mother, this child is really happy. She must have inherited her joy from Heath.
Michelle should try smiling. She is the one who chose this profession, nobody made her. Her fans would like to see her smile sometimes.
Would it kill Michelle to smile sometimes. Geez
She is too cute for words and I love how Michelle dresses her!
Matilda is starting to look a lot more like Michelle.
Matilda looks like a boy!
She is just the cutest thing! Michelle is a great mother.
Heath would have been laughing. He would have known what to do.Matilda with Spike is not the same thing. I hope her mother and Spike treat her kindly.
She’s the best.
mom is full of hate,paranoia and miserable
adorable baby
but Michelle is a witch especially she sues
and threats her own fans
She does not like fans???
i always lol at the nasty comments directed towards michelle that come one right after another, they are so obviously written by the same person. Get a life loser (ahem lena and west). And to all the people saying Michelle should smile more, she is alone running errands. Why should she have to smile walking down the street, where do you live, stepford? But anywho Matilda is adorable and Michelle is gorgeous and Spike seems like a good guy. I bet Heath is looking down smiling his beautiful smile!
I think Matilda is the real-life version of Ramona Quimby. She just looks so cute and spunky like Ramona did in the books.
aww… matilda is so adorable!
I watched I’m Not There and she performs poorly in the movie. And I think she always does the same type of character.
Rose, why so defensive because its the truth about Michelle and people have the right to their opinions not calling them losers.
I agree with people that Michelle is a twit and she’s always duckface as my coworkers call her.
No. 28 =============
Typical actress who takes off their clothes and do p##n movies thus the label “serious actress”.
As that true saying goes “less talent lesser the clothes”.
“happy and healthy”… and - hideous! haHaha..
She’s not your puppet, #14. She doesn’t or should have to smile for the intrusive paparazzi or her fans trying to live vicariously through her.
That’s silly, #30.
aaw! #26 she does remind me of Ramona !!!! I love those books!
she look so happy!!
She’s my favorite celeb baby.
I wish all the best for this family.
matilda is so cute! its so sad…it supposed to be heath…=[
jessica simpson IS JUST TOO “HEAVY”, folks!!
awww, that just made me day. how cute!!
and #29 - your coworkers, more like your school friends! haha your truth is synonymous with pathetic lies.
I’m not a fan of Michelle and I adore Matilda. I wonder how often Michelle really allows any contact with Heath’s parents and family. I know they say in public that everything is fine, but I don’t think it is.
For once I am glad there are paparrazzi! I want to keep seeing pictures of this little girl to know she’s healthy and happy. I hope she will be allowed to know her real grandparents. I hope Michelle will treat her with love. Michelle is a selfish person. Once Matilda gets older , Michelle may have a kid with Spike or some other guy, to hang on to them like she tried to with Heath, before he got wise to her. She never looks really happy. Michelle is sour. Somewhere in her unconscious, Matilda remembers her daddy. She knows Spike is not Heath. Not even close. Spike must like sour, difficult women. He used to be with Sophia Coppola. She is mean and sour, too.
Oh, Bianca. Talk about sour grapes.
I can’t even begin to correct you on all your sad attempts at rumors. Here’s a hint: no matter how many times you say it, it won’t become true.
Here’s to hoping you find a life!
jared, you missed the best snap of them all!

No, Spike will never be Matilda’s father, but he is a great father figure. I’m sure Michelle will never let Matilda forget Heath, but let’s face it, he’s gone, he wouldn’t want his loved ones mourning him their entire lives. I’d bet he’d be happy someone as awesome as Spike Jonze is playing such a central role in Matilda’s life. Matilda’s going to have the best childhood.
It’s so nice to see things like this.. though I wouldn’t mind a bigger gap between each set of photos.. it’s funny that they’re being photographed now more than ever.
so adorable !!!
Matilda is so darling! I love her trademark polka dot leggings and smile. Michelle is such a great mother.
I will never for the life of me understand why you keep calling her Matilda LEDGER. Michelle & Heath were never married so her legal name is Matilda WILLIAMS! Get over it, Heath is dead and he ain’t comin’ back.
Michelle is sour. She needs to smile sometimes looks uppity all the time. It is a miracle that little daughter of her’s is so happy.
Michelle, the public is the people you want to like you, to come see your movies, so you need to change that sour persona you give out.
@Shemp lugosi:
No as Heath’s name is on her birth certificate her legal name is Matilda Rose Ledger.
@Shemp lugosi:
Generally, children take the father’s surname, not the mothers. It’s fairly common knowledge. And for the record - just because her father is dead does not mean she should revert to her mothers maiden name.
@joanna:
I’m a fan and I don’t care if she’s smiling or not. She smiles when she’s with friends, when she’s with her daughter and Spike; she doesn’t smile strolling by herself down the street, no one does that! And, if I were in her position, I wouldn’t smile at the foreign idiots with cameras glued to their hands, who stalked her the year she mourned the father of her child. Gain some perspective.
matilda is such a lil cutie and michelle is a great mother!! its nice to see Spike on the sceene as well!! i wish them happiness :)
Check out frankie’s link: there she is - SMILING! ALL of them, and Mathilda shrieking with delight!
**** you Spike you are not heath
She is so adorable! I wish them nothing but happiness.
How cute is Matilda pulling on Spike’s hair!
Oh dear, #53, because I’m sure until now, Spike thought he was! Psch.
Spike Jonze’s face in some of these is priceless. Pull, Matilda, pull! And I love Michelle’s shirt, though I don’t like it teamed with that jacket.
Matilda is such a cutie. I hope Michelle and Spike are good to her.
Spike’s zipper is open.
where is michelle’s coat from!?
In my eyes Matilda looks like Heath: Eyes, smile, face and everything. I can’t wait her to grow up. It would be great to see her acting. I wonder if she ever asks where is her daddy :’(</3
The reason Matilda is such a happy child is all thanks to the nanny who brought her up since she was a baby, a tall blonde lady. I believe she now has a new nanny, but the tall one was with her for 3 years, she was the one who acted as Matilda’s ‘mom’. Michelle is just interested in men like a crazy obsessive, and she’s been like that since she was in Dawson’s Creek. She has a thing for older guys.
Matilda is the cutest Celeb kid for sure, she is so real. When I saw the pictures I could nt help think what if it was Health. anyway super cute she is!
Michelle is such a fantastic mother! I love seeing pictures of Matilda looking so happy. And Spike looks a cool person to be around.:-)
Shut up 55 i dont talk to you b”"”"”", heath 4ever
What a beautiful, healthy, and happy child. I NEVER thought I would say this but she really does look like Michelle in these pics!! And awwwwwww these pics also remind me of when Matilda was riding on Heath’s shoulders. :( :( !! He sure is missed, darn it!!
spike will never be heath ledger. it’s so sad that matilda will never know her father but just remember spike and maybe say daddy to spike who i think it’s a bad guy who had drugs problem before and michelle is moron to dating him. i thaught that she will date someone who is not famous. she complaints about to paps and break up with Heath. Heath himself doesn’t know why she did that to him and now she pretend to have anything that she wants. this woman is disgusted!!!!!
SPIKE WILL NEVER NEVER REPLACE HEATH LEGDER. SPIKE JUST WANT TO MAKE A PLACE IN THIS BUSINESS BECAUSE AFTER HIS DIVORCE WITH SOFIA HE WAS ANONYMOUS AND NOW HE USE MICHELLE AND MATILDA TO BE FAMOUS.
look at all this pictures. Matilda draws his hair. she hate him!!!!!!!!!
you are right caroline, he seems weird .spike is very small and matilda is tall like her father.he try to make her on his shoulder but she seems door to him.if they fight one day i’am sure that matilda will win!!!!!!!
for all people who say that she is nice and have pity for her or blah blah, you make big mistake guys. ask all people who know michelle very well and they will say the same things. ‘’she is manipulate and a monster”
Matilda I swear is the cutest celeb kid ever! Look at that adorable dress leggings and boots! So happy to see Spike playing a role in her life. The hair-pulling photos are really cute, she used to pull on Heath’s hair too!
She is a beautiful child. They must get very tired of pictures being taken of them all the time, but I love to see her grow with each photo. Brings a smile to my face.
Love seeing pics of this trio …. thanks jared
I have so much respect for Michelle as a mother and a person! She accepts that she’s no one out of the ordinary and doesn’t try to be something she’s not. She may seem plain jane to the naked eye, but she has a big heart and a lot of intelligence. It’s nice to know that Matilda will be so loved by Michelle’s friends and family, as well as Heath’s. I would wish them all the happiness in the world, but it seems they already have it!
Michelle intelligent? Please, don’t make me laugh. She is the most stupid pretentious actress around, she was so stupid that she even had to buy her own education over the internet for $200 when she was 15. She has got to where she is thanks to her rich daddy and thanks to opening her legs and getting pregnant when it suited her.
Saw these on celebrity-babies.com. Matilda is so darling. I love the one where Spike is hugging Michelle and Matilda is laughing. She’s by far my favourite celebrity child.
I love Michelle Williams..She is my favorite actress and she seems so beautiful and lovely.
Spike Jonze is awesome.
Ewww. I think Michelle is as ugly on both the inside and outside. She seems really smelly too, so does Spike. I hope it’s true that Matilda has a nanny looking after her because it looks to me that Michelle is more interested in herself and her movie director boyfriend than anything else. The poor Ledgers have to pretend everything is fine because she has the power over them, little Matilda.
@sexgod:
lol, what are you twelve? “she seems really smelly!”
Michelle is an awesome mom…Matilda is always so happy :)
I want to pretend Spike is Heath. I dont want another guy in their lives just yet…i dunno. it feels like hes being replaced. just as long as he treats Matilda and Michelle well then thats all that matters.
lots of love from Australia xoxoxoxo
a little heartbreaking remembering the famous photo of matilda riding on heath ledger’s shoulders, but this is so sweet.
