Jason Segal reaches out to Ledger family

Published: 7:56PM Saturday August 18, 2012 Source: Bang Showbiz

Jason Segel has reached out to Heath Ledger's family to let them know they are always welcome to see his daughter.

The Forgetting Sarah Marshall star contacted Kim Ledger, the father of the late actor, to let him know that he is there for his granddaughter, six-year-old Matilda Rose, as well as her mother Michelle Williams.

The My Life With Marilyn actress and the Ledger family endured a battle after the Dark Knight Rises star's tragic death in 2008, arguing over inheritance and who should get his various awards.

However they have recently buried the hatchet and her partner Segal is hoping they can all get along.

A source told website RadarOnline: "Jason got on the phone and introduced himself to Kim, and then invited the Ledgers to use his home whenever they wanted to fly in from Australia to visit Michelle and Maddie.

"Kim was blown away by Jason's generosity and the two hit it off right away. Now Kim's given his blessing for Jason to marry Michelle and be a stepdad to Matilda."

Williams and Ledger amicably ended their three-year relationship in September 2007, and the following January he died of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.

Segal and Williams have been dating since the beginning of the year.
