I'm not sure. I didn't follow his career.

Neither. He was a human being.

A bit of both, I guess. He was a great actor but he seemed to have had a drug problem. He overdosed and died. I don't know whether it was about illegal drugs or prescribtion medicine but he didn't look very healthy in the last couple of years of his life. He also had an affair with Mary-Kate Olsen.

Does having an affair with Mary-Kate Olsen go on the credit or the debit side?

I don't think it's wrong that he had an affair with her at all, she was older than 18 at the time and he was separated from his wife as far as I know. It's just that Mary-Kate is into drugs and denied to testify in court or something and also she sent some manager or bodyguard to his house (probably to get rid of the drugs) before she sent an ambulance. Or did the housekeeper call her before she called an ambulance? Something like that. It isn't about them having an affair, more about the fact that her being involved makes the whole thing more suspicious.

Mary Kate was in California when Heath died. Heath's massage therapist called her before calling an ambulance, and MK said she would send her security team over to try and help him, but Heath was dead by then. As far as I know, she never refused to testify in court, or anything like that. The cops never interviewed her, and she went on with her life.
Heath was into drugs WAY before he started seeing MK, so while she and the massage therapist should have been quicker to dial 911, I don't think it's fair to paint her as some sort of femme fatale, or something. Heath was already messed up.

She refused to be interviewed unless she'd be granted immunity from prosecution, which in my opinion you do when you have something to hide.
I never meant to blame Mary-Kate. I like her a lot and grew up with her movies. But to me the whole story that he died from prescription medicine is kind of fishy. I think he was definitely into harder drugs. Not that I can prove it, but he looked bad for someone in his late 20s. Mary-Kate seems to be into drugs as well. I never meant to say that it was her fault, it definitely wasn't. He decided to take them after all and I agree that he was into the whole stuff probably years before meeting her.

Sorry if I made it sound that way. I'm cranky today, but it's got nothing to do with anyone here. :)
I don't find it hard to believe that he could have died from an overdose of prescription meds, since that happens to people all the time. I do agree that he was probably on harder stuff, though. You'd be hard pressed to find a young actor in Hollywood who hasn't dabbled in drugs.

Hahaha don't worry about it ;) However it happened, it's sad that he died so young and I don't think it really would have helped anyone had she been interviewed. He was dead and nothing could have changed that. I guess most people would have done the same thing.

I don't see how he could have had an affair, since the rumor was that he was seeing her after he and Michelle Williams broke up, and neither of them were married. Where is the affair? I'm not seeing it.

You're not seeing it because you don't know the definition of the word affair. An affair doesn't necessarily include cheating on someone. It simply means that you have a romantic relationship with someone that's not really serious and doesn't last very long. I never implied that he was cheating on someone or that she was.

Nope, can't say I'm familiar with that particular definition of the word. I'm sure it's legit, but I never hear anyone use it in real life. I just hear people say, "I'm seeing So-and-So" if it's not serious.

Oh okay, it is used here all of the time for some reason.
