New Delhi, Aug 28 (ANI): Liam Neeson has said that he and his two sons are still trying to cope with his wife Natasha Richardson’s death, and are “taking each day as it comes”.
The ‘Taken’ actor said that he and his sons Micheal, 14, and Daniel, 12, were still in grief after the sudden death of Natasha in March, reports the China Daily.
“We’re doing good. We are still getting extraordinary condolence letters from American people. That’s deeply, deeply touching,” said the 57-year-old star in an appearance on US TV show ‘Good Morning America’.
In fact, he said that he was overwhelmed with the sympathy from the US public, which even inspired him to become an American citizen, more than 20 years after he moved to the country.
“That is partly the reason that I have recently become an American citizen. I was born in Northern Ireland but America has been very, very good to me,” he said.
“I am still a proud Irishman, but I have become an American citizen, and am very proud of that,” he added.
The interview was the first time Liam publicly spoke since Natasha died of a brain injury after a skiing accident. (ANI)
