HEATH LEDGER: WILL UPDATE

That family feud over HEATH LEDGER's will rages on - with MICHELLE WILLIAMS challenging his father over how much of the Aussie hunk's inheritance their 2-year-old daughter Matilda should get - but she's distancing herself from the fray by helping best pal and former "Dawson's Creek" co-star BUSY PHILIPPS through her first pregnancy! "Busy's joy is contagious for Michelle - it's lifted her spirits," says a friend. "She hopes the Ledger family will set up a trust fund for Matilda, but isn't banking on it. She says she'd rather look toward the future than be dragged down by the past."
