Michelle Williams arrives in Australia

Heath Ledger's ex-girlfriend and daughter prepare for funeral

Michelle Williams and her two-year-old daughter arrived in Brisbane, Australia, Wednesday afternoon local time for Heath Ledger's funeral.

Williams, wearing a black dress and black sunglasses, held the striped-dress-clad Matilda in her arms as they exited the plane under heavy security. Matilda clung to a stuffed rabbit as more than five police officers and airport security escorted them into an elevator.

Williams's arrival comes one day after Ledger's father, Kim, mother Sally and sister Kate all returned home. A private funeral for the actor – who was found dead in his Manhattan apartment Jan. 22 at the age of 28 – is expected in the coming days.

Although Williams and Ledger (who met while filming Brokeback Mountain) split last September, the two remained bonded by love for their daughter. In a statement released after his death, the actress said, "My heart is broken."
