Actress Michelle Williams has reportedly gone into hiding as her ex-lover Heath Ledger's final completed movie is screened worldwide.

According to the Sunday Mirror, the former 'Dawson's Creek' star is finding it difficult dealing with the huge publicity surrounding Batman sequel 'The Dark Knight', which stars the late Ledger as The Joker.

A friend of the star told the newspaper: "The last few weeks have been particularly hard on Michelle because Heath's face has been plastered all over TV and on billboards. It's been extraordinarily difficult as she tries to somehow come to terms with his death and what that means for little Matilda [Williams and Ledger's daughter]."

Ledger died in January following an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.
