A Love Story and Tragic Loss
Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson met in 1993 while performing in Anna Christie on Broadway. Though she was married, their undeniable chemistry led to a lasting love. “I’m pleased that women fall in love with him because I know why,” Richardson once said. They married in 1994 and had two sons, Micheál and Daniel.

In 2009, Richardson suffered a fatal head injury in a skiing accident. Initially dismissing medical attention, her condition worsened, and she was declared brain dead. Neeson honored their pact, saying, “We had made a pact… pull the plug.” He brought her home for loved ones to say goodbye.
