Heath Ledger disgusted fellow subway passengers in New York at the weekend with his "unwashed" stench, it has been claimed.The 'Brokeback Mountain' star was spotted carrying his two-year-old daughter Matilda through a station during Thanksgiving weekend, and commuters who crossed his path insist he was giving off an unpleasant smell.One onlooker said: "He was pushing past the crowds on a staircase and I got quite a whiff. He smelled pretty unwashed!" Heath - who split from Matilda's mother Michelle Williams in the summer - was wearing red-framed sunglasses, an oversize lilac knitted hat and a fleece-lined jacket, which passengers also claim needed a good wash.The witness added to America's OK! magazine: "His jacket has clearly never seen the inside of a washing machine. He seemed to be going for the hobo-chic look!"In September, it was revealed Michelle and Heath had gone their separate ways after struggling to save their "rocky" relationship for the sake of their child.To make sure Matilda is not affected by the split the couple are creating identical bedrooms for their daughter in their respective New York apartments so she feels settled moving between Michelle's Brooklyn home and Heath's new SoHo residence.
