Michelle Williams Was Mortified Her Dad Was Arrested Down Under

Michelle Williams reveals that she was mortified when her father was arrested for tax evasion in Sydney primiarly because her partner Heath Ledger is such a big Australian star. Larry Williams was arrested at Sydney airport in May after U.S. authorities issued a warrant for his return to America.

The commodities trader is wanted on charges of evading $1.5 million in income tax and is currently in an Australian jail awaiting extradition.

Michelle explains, "It's a strange thing having one's father locked up, but you get used to it."

She adds, "It is ironic to have him (Larry) in Australia, of all places. It's like, 'Could you pick somewhere else to get arrested? Sydney is a little tricky for us!'"
