Michelle Williams might march to the beat of her own drum, but she IS glad that the public supports her relationship with boyfriend Jason Segel! 

In the March issue of InStyle, the actress admits she forever cherishes the unwavering support she has received since going public with her relationship with Segel.

“If people are happy about it that makes me feel good because in my head the opposite is often true — that people fault or blame you for things,” Williams, 32, says.

“That’s really painful. You wish they would just want you to be happy, for your kid to be happy, and for you to have a good life and do good work.”

She adds: “Any kind sentiment that the world can feed back, well, I won’t turn it down.”

Williams is very happy living domestically in her Brooklyn apartment with her daughter, Matilda Rose, who’s father is the late Heath Ledger.  Williams tries to keep Matilda away from the Hollywood lifestyle as much as she can, which is so freaking cool of her to do!
