Hollywood well wishes continue to pour in on behalf of Natasha Richardson.
Here are a few of the amazing comments issued to Natasha’s family during this difficult time.
Meryl Streep:
“Tash was the warm sun in the center of a large constellation of family, friends, all of those lucky enough to know her – she is irreplaceable in our lives; she gave us so much, so generously – her legacy is the love that connects us all.”
Jodie Foster (Costar in 1994’s Nell, where Richardson and Liam Neeson met):
“Natasha was brilliant, beautiful, funny, talented beyond measure, as emotionally raw as she was razor sharp. … May Liam, her beautiful boys and her loving family hold her close as they move through this tragic moment.”
Oprah Winfrey:
“I just want to say how deeply saddened I am, we all are, by the sudden passing of actress Natasha Richardson yesterday. Our thoughts and prayers are with her husband Liam Neeson, their two sons, the rest of their family and friends. Yet another reminder of how fleeting life can be and how precious. We need to value every moment.”
Joan Rivers:
“We spent one amazing day on a boat with my whole family and she and Liam and the boys. They were such a family. I mean just shouldn’t have happened. And they made such a good-looking couple too. He doted on what she said, she doted on — it was just perfect.”
Blythe Danner:
“I can’t talk because I started crying. I’m heart broken. She was so kind to us when Bruce [Paltrow, Danner's late husband] was ill. She’s so generous. I don’t think that I can handle it.”
Jane Fonda:
“I first met her on the set of Julia [the 1977 drama, starring Richardson's mother, Vanessa Redgrave]. She was a little girl but already beautiful and graceful. It didn’t surprise me that she became such a talented actor. I wanted to go to the Lenox Hill Hospital where I was told she had been taken to see if there was anything I could do for Vanessa [Redgrave], any comfort I could bring, but today was a two-show day and as the curtain went up tonight, I heard the tragic news. It is hard to even imagine what it must be like for her family. My heart is heavy.”
