Supermodel Helena Christensen has spoken out about how her son, 8-year-old Mingus, is helping her cope with the loss of Heath Ledger, who she briefly dated. "Time passes. It's doesn't make it easier, but you try to do the best you can. When you have a child, they kind of bring you back to the moment in a really comforting way," says Helena, who was on her way to Heath's flat when she heard the tragic news of his death. "Losing any friend is horrific, but he just had this thing about him – this special, enigmatic thing that I had never seen in anyone before." The cause of Heath's death is still unknown, but the results of the autopsy are due in the next 48 hours.
