THE TELEGRAPH: Heath Ledger's former girlfriend drove him to a drug rehabilitation centre last year to get treatment for abuse of heroin, cocaine and "a variety of pills" but he refused to go in and promised to clean up on his own, it has been claimed.

According to US Weekly magazine, Michelle Williams was so upset by the Australian actor's drug problems during their three-year relationship that she took him to the Promises Treatment Centre in Malibu, California, in March last year.

He refused to get out of the car but subsequently broke his promise to sort himself out, said the magazine, citing "multiple sources" for its claims. Heath Ledger 'refused help for heroin abuse' >>> By Tom Leonard in New York
