Zelda Williams Quits Social Media After Defending Her Relationship With Robin Williams

Zelda Williams deleted her Twitter account and says she is taking a break from her Instagram account after trolls on both of the pages suggested that she did not have a very good relationship with her father Robin Williams. Whether or not she saw her father all of the time shouldn't be an issue when she wants to say something nice about him following his death. Apparently the fact that Robin sent her a message on Instagram on her birthday but she never responded to him is fueling the fire. The lack of photos of the pair together in recent years also added to it. The thing is parents and kids can have rocky relationships with good and bad. You don't think that I am tired of living in the basement and my parents are just as tired of it? There might be days we don't speak to each other and we live in the same house. Just because the two of them may have not had the closest relationship the past few years doesn't mean Zelda shouldn't be allowed to grieve and express how she feels without being harassed. There were more than a few comments on her Twitter that suggested her failure to respond to his birthday wishes might have contributed more to his depression. Why would anyone want to put that on her?

    Oh for pity's sake. This is like how Julia Roberts caused her sister to commit suicide. Implying you're responsible for the death of your father because you didn't respond to a post is Radar ridiculous and cruel to someone who just lost her dad and is probably still processing.

    I hear her account was hijacked and people were posting pictures of Robin and her that didn't exist. Or something to that effect. Nonetheless pretty heartless considering she just lost her father.

    I find it quite noble on her behalf that as an aspiring actress she a) never exploited her father fame like some shits out there (Willis girls) and b) that she never acted like an ass and embarrassed him.

    This isn't a daughter that had a contentious relationship with her dad. They adored each other and she's heartbroken as well. Stupid trolls made a tough time harder.

  21. Karen7:50 AM

    @Sherry, I read that people were sending her graphic photoshopped images of him (to look like his death scene or something). It's so cruel and heartless and absolutely disgusting.

    I agree with everything you've said, though. She seems like a classy girl who loved her dad.

    It infuriates me that anyone would think she owes an explanation for their perception of her relationship with her dad. Dealing with my brother's bipolar addict ex-girlfriend following his death was so damn hard and that's just 1 person. This is so cruel, I can't comprehend it.

    I know that Anonymous is busy with Fergusan and Gaza, but I hope 4chan answers the calls for dox'ing the trolls. Get their real identities out there so any future employee, spouse, inquisitive neighbor knows exactly what shit people they are.

    Robin would track them down individually and beat them trolls down one by one, Jay and Silent Bob style.'i can attest that the only thing worse than losing a loved one to suicide is having the media blast it everywhere and not be able to escape it. Poor baby.

    I believe that people show their true nature on social media - where there are is anonymity and a lack of consequences.

    Just because you don't live your entire life on social media doesn't mean you don't have a life; in fact, the opposite is usually true. I haven't had any pictures taken of me w/my parents in many years, but we all love each other very much, and I'll be totally devastated when the inevitable happens (please, God, not for a long time...). Nobody should ever have to justify their relationship with a recently deceased loved one like that, and I don't blame her at all for bailing on social media--what kind of asshole sends people pictures supposedly of the deceased?

    I just don't understand what makes some people enjoy hurting other people, especially people they don't even know, so damn much, but I have a suggestion as to how to deal with them that Snapdragon in particular should like: allegedly Edward II of England was murdered in 1327 by having a red-hot iron rod shoved up his ass (through a horn, so as not to leave scorch marks on the outside of his body) and burning him from the inside out. I'll go look for an iron rod if someone else starts the fire...

    (On a better note, Frances Bean Cobain has stepped up and has offered to be there for Zelda; IIRC, the two of them already know each other, and now, sadly, they have something else in common. Bless your heart, Frances, and I mean that totally sincerely.)

We have no idea what her relationship was with her Dad, but if you watch the Zelda Video they did on YouTube, he clearly adores her and she him. Praying for her and her family. Quite impressed with Frances Bean Cobain too and her message of support to Zelda. Class act.

    Zelda's accounts weren't all "me me me and my food" types of accounts. She didn't post 1000 times a day and she rarely posted family photos. As she said on her tumblr page, she has plenty of photos with her family, but those are at home in her house on the wall for them to enjoy, not splattered all over the internet for everyone else. Good for her.

    Here's the tumblr post, she's a pretty decent writer. http://zeldawilliams.tumblr.com/

    First off, enty still lives in his parents' basement? Or this isn't a lawyer but an intern?

    Second, who the fuck RESPONDS ONLINE to birthday messages from their own family? It's one thing for Robin to wish his daughter a happy birthday publicly. That doesn't mean she needed to retweet with an awkward "thanks." It doesn't mean she wasn't in constant contact with him in person or over the phone.

    Vicious little trolls under the age of, I don't know, 22, seem to think the world revolves around Twitter and Instagram. How DARE they presume to know what these people's relationships were like behind closed doors, even if he was famous. I'm still confused as to why people would expect her to have written back her own (famous) father on Twitter/Instagram anyway. How tacky need she have been?

    Come on, Zelda. Ya should've sent those trolls a picture of Idris Elba's cock, along with the message "Then I'm my Daddy's dick!" Your Daddy would've been so proud, and everyone loves a peen joke! When in doubt, get the balls out, gurrrrrrl

It was very classy and quite clever, and showed that she's pretty tough and not one to mess with. I was impressed. :-)

  63. Unknown5:42 PM

    Only the socially inept with no moral boundaries would harass a grieving child. It's no one's business why she didn't post online to her father. Perhaps they were together on her birthday, or spoke on the phone which would be normal and more meaningful to them both. I don't understand why anyone would feel the need to even question a bereaved young woman. Some people are simply insane and stupid I guess.
