Actress Michelle Williams, 28, wore a gorgeous pearl-colored dress with criss-cross panels to a screening of her film Synecdoche, New York in New York City last night. Mother of one Williams has quietly been dating the director of the film, Spike Jonze. The two have managed to mostly avoid photographers and seem to have taken pains to hide their relationship, but they didn’t hold back at the after party for the film last night. People reports that they were making out like a couple of teenagers with a curfew:
After attending a Cinema Society screening of their new film, Synecdoche, New York in Manhattan Wednesday night, the couple walked out of the auditorium with Jonze caressing Williams’ back and wrapping his arm around her waist.
The pair held hands as they walked through the lobby, where they met up with Synecdoche costar Catherine Keener. While the two women chatted and munched on popcorn, Jonze snaked his arm around Williams’ waist again.
“He couldn’t seem to keep his hands off her,” said an onlooker. “It was very cute.”
But the sparks really started to fly later that night, when they headed to the Gramercy Hotel’s rooftop club for the Mulberry-sponsored afterparty.
While the two – who have been romantically linked since this summer – talked with friends, they stood so close they were “practically spooning,” said one fellow guest.
And later, when they decided to leave the bash at around 1 a.m., Williams and Jonze shared a mini makeout session – on their way to the elevator.

Good for them! It sounds like they’re in the honeymoon phase of their relationship. Reports first surfaced that they were a couple around the end of July, less than three months ago. They seem to not be able to get enough of each other, and hopefully it will turn into a long term stable relationship if it’s right for both of them.
Everyone was worried about Williams after Heath Ledger passed away from an accidental prescription drug interaction this January. Ledger was her ex boyfriend and the father of her now almost three year old daughter, Matilda. Little Matilda is the splitting image of her dad. It seems that her mother may have found love and happiness again after so much tragedy.

good for her. i wish those two all the best.
I adore this woman – so many people (sadly)would have exploited the hell out of what happened with Heath, but she seems to be a total class act. I rarely say this on gossip sites because it sounds so cheesy lol but I sincerely hope for the best for her. 🙂
love love love her! she is super cute and love the way she handled the heath situation.
they make a cute couple and they arent putting themselves right out in the spotlight which is refreshing
I’ll admit that I’ve found Michelle Williams’ cultural position a bit odd– everyone seems to act as if she’s Ledger’s widow, when in fact they weren’t even a couple when he died. Yes, obviously, he was a big part of her life and father of her child, but it wasn’t like, oh, Bogart and Bacall or anything.
Then again I’ve never seen any movie either of them were in and can only judge based off tabloid stories.
good for her. it’s time she moved on.
YEY! She’s awesome and she looks Amazing!
she does look stunning but he needs a haircut – we know you’re going bald mate and styling your do like your missis is not helping!
Spike Jonze did not direct the film, Charlie Kaufman did.
I dont always agree with your posts, but this was dead on, way to go!
