Zelda Williams opens up about coping with father Robin Williams’s death

Zelda went on to talk about the reactions of her loved ones and how she was affected by the responses of others after the death of her father. “It was very funny because, for a while, no one would let me do anything. I think there’s that reaction of like, ‘Oh, are you OK?’ And then even if you are OK, they’re like, ‘Well, what’s wrong?’ For awhile, I was just kind of left to my own
devices.”

The actress has been keeping herself busy, by playing a transgender character in Freeform’s Dead of Summer and a maniacal kidnapper in Lifetime’s “Girl in the Box”. “I’ve been working really hard and it’s been nice because you get to not sit with yourself for too long.” She has also written 12 scripts in the past two years.
