Naomi Watts has put her professional life on hold in order to mourn the loss of Heath Ledger.

The actress – who dated Ledger on-and-off for two years – has cancelled all her interviews for her upcoming thriller, Funny Games, at this years Sundance Film Festival in Utah.

According to a U.S. news outlet the mother-of-one has also opted not to attend the premiere, and is said to be "devastated” following the actors abrupt passing.

The pair met on the set of their 2002 hit-flick, Ned Kelly, but later split in 2003 because of "conflicting schedules."

''Heath Ledger and Naomi Watts have made the decision to go their separate ways,'' a statement from their rep read. 

''At this time in their lives both are busy pursuing careers which are taking them in different directions. They remain close friends.''
