Actress Michelle Williams is considering fleeing New York with her daughter following the death of her ex-partner Heath Ledger.

The former Dawson's Creek star is being hounded out of the city by continued harassment from paparazzi, reports Fox.

Williams pleaded for privacy following the death of her former fiance in January, saying, "My heart is broken. Please respect our need to grieve privately."

But the 27-year-old is unable to live in peace in the Brooklyn home she once shared with Ledger - and is now considering leaving.
