Story: Way to the Future (WttF) Full Name: Jane Amanda Ledger (later Ruess; maiden name is White) Birthdate: June 17th, 1984 Place of Birth: Perth, Western Australia, Australia Hair Color: (Light) Brown/cinnamon Eye Color: Blue Height:5'10" Occupation: Supermodel (Makes around $8 million per year) Spouse: Heath Ledger (m. 2002-2008 (Ledger died of accidental drug overdose)), Nate Ruess (m. 2012) Children: Elizabeth Ledger (b. 2005 -daughter with Heath Ledger), Peyton Ruess (b. 2014 -son with Nate Ruess) Personality: Cute, innocent, and happy. Jane is usually bubbly and smiling all of the time, and laughs easily. However, on the rare chance she is mad, she gets really mad and serious and it's easy to see. Jane wears her heart on her sleeve. Bio: Jane, growing up in Perth, Australia, has an Australian accent. It is less noticeable after years of living in New York and California, but it is clear she didn't grow up in the United States. She was married happily to a famous actor, Heath Ledger, and had a daughter with him (Elizabeth), but Heath died in 2008 from an accidental overdose of sleeping pills. Jane was in the Caribbean for a photo shoot for Victoria's Secret when she got the news of his death, and flew back to New York immediately, her face streaked in tears. She refused to talk to anyone besides their daughter or go out for at least a week, crying alone and with Elizabeth (who didn't exactly know what was happening at the time) in their apartment. Jane always called Heath 'Heathy', or 'Heath Bar' when they were joking around or alone. Jane loves to give kisses and hugs, often happy with burying her head in Heath's chest or wrapping her arms around his tall figure. She often comments how she can never get used to Nate's considerably short height after being with Heath, a man who stood at around 6'2". -When she talks, she sounds like Aygnes Dean. If you don't know who that is, go to the 'We Found Love' by Rhianna OFFICIAL music video, and listen to the start. The woman talking is Aygnes Dean.

Jillian always laughs, smiling away at anything. She can be very shy around people she has never met, though. She is constantly hardworking and loves performing (acting), always completely immersing herself in roles. Jillian clearly inherited Heath's talent, and Jane's beauty. Bio: Jillian was born in Manhattan, but switched off from living in New York and California. She would often travel with her mother when she was at photo-shoots and her father was off filming, but sometimes went with her father if Jane wasn't able to be around to take care of her. Otherwise, the family lived in SoHo, New York or L.A. Jillian, even though coming from a very wealthy and famous family, is not spoiled (Jane made sure of that) and isn't a brat. Jane wanted her to have as a normal of an experience that she could have as a girl with two famous and wealthy parents who traveled a lot.
