When news of Heath Ledger's death first hit the media, there were certain reports erroneously stating that Heath was found in an apartment owned by Mary-Kate Olsen. Now, new details have been revealed explaining why that assumption was made.
Apparently when Heath's massage therapist found him unconscious, she picked up the actor's phone and called Mary-Kate on speed dial, knowing the two were friends. MK told the masseuse that she would call private security people she knew in New York for help. When Heath still couldn't be woken up, the massage therapist called 911 on her own, and both the paramedics and Mary-Kate's people arrived at almost the same time.
The EMTs found the actor in cardiac arrest and tried to revive him, to no avail.
E! is reporting that Heath's housekeeper was in the apartment at around 1pm and heard the actor snoring. It is being speculated that he died somewhere between 1pm and 2:45pm, when the masseuse found him.
I know "what ifs" don't matter now, but if only someone had woken him earlier...
