Natasha Richardson’s son Micheál recalls the pain of losing his mother: It really ‘messes with your mind’

Natasha Richardson’s son Micheál Richardson explored the impact of grief in the 2020 film "Made in Italy" alongside his father Liam Neeson.

"I was a mama’s boy growing up and she was really my best friend," the 25-year-old told The Times on Tuesday. "I mean, we were all a close family, but [my younger brother] Danny was my dad’s boy and I was my mom’s boy, for sure." Micheál admitted that losing his mother at such a young age caused him to have "a bit of a head spin." He spent years "distracting" himself from the loss. He still endures unexpected moments of grief.
