Iconic Hollywood Romances That Started On A Film Set

Heath and Michelle in Brokeback Mountain

Brokeback Mountain is one of the most heartbreaking love stories filmed in the 2000s and was completely groundbreaking in the showing of an on-screen gay love story. It also spawned a real-life heartbreaking love story between stars Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams. The two embarked on a whirlwind romance which culminated with the birth of their daughter Matilda. The couple separated, and it was widely rumored that Heath was struggling with various issues. The issues later became well publicized after the shocking death of Heath Ledger at the young age of 28. Since his death, Michelle has raised their daughter on her own and has also reportedly stayed very close to Heath’s family.
