Natasha Richardson

[Deschanel]

Sigh.. this afternoon it seems the reports are that she has been pulled from life support. Yesterday there was a flurry of news and speculation, declaring her dead. Or brain-dead. There was hope that it was wrong and mistaken. There was some hope. I guess it's gone.

Natasha is Vanessa Redgrave's daughter, Liam Neeson's wife, someone who comes from a great British acting family but also was a great New Yorker, Broadway royalty, and stories abound of her and Neeson being a glamorous, but gracious and approachable couple about town. She had an injury on a beginner's ski-slope on Montreal and now there's a vigil for her. The prognosis isn't good.

I just hate it when awful things happen to good people. Life can be fleeting, and its a damned shame.

Yeah, it's really sad. I thought he was married to the one in Nip/Tuck but looking at the pictures of her, she was really gorgeous.

R.I.P. Natasha.
To be honest I only knew of her because of the part she played in "Maid in Manhattan". My thoughts are with the family.
