Me 2. I've been beside myself worring about Jake. So glad he found the strength to make it to Perth. I pray he finds closure - I pray we all do.

Jake Gyllenhaal Leaning On Reese Witherspoon, Sister For Loss of Heath Ledger
By Brenda Jones
Feb 8, 2008
Jake Gyllenhaal is struggling mightily with the shock and is desperately leaning on his girlfriend, Reese Witherspoon, to help him cope with the grief he feels over his late pal Heath Ledger, sources tell OK! Magazine. A pal of Jake tells OK! that Reese has been crucial in getting the Brokeback Mountain star through this terrible time.
Jake Gyllenhaal Leaning On Reese Witherspoon, Sister For Loss of Heath Ledger
"Jake calls Reese every night," the friend confides. "He told her he’s having a hard time facing something as big as this." Jake’s first call when he heard about the loss of Heath was to his older sister, Maggie, the report claims.

A Gyllenhaal family insider says Maggie, 30, is trying her best to be there for her 27-year-old brother. After she spoke to him on the phone, the insider says, “Maggie must have been concerned for Jake. I heard he sounded groggy, like he was in a daze. He was mumbling about Heath being gone, his voice was shaky and he was choking back tears during the conversation. I’m sure Maggie could hear the hurt in Jake’s voice.”
Jake, who is godfather to Heath’s 2-year-old daughter, Matilda, with Michelle Williams, feels guilty for not being there for his Aussie buddy. “I bet Maggie’s worried about her brother beating himself up and wishing he had known how bad things were,” says the friend. “There is only so much a person can do.”

With all due respect (ie. I certainly don't mean any criticism for posting articles here that are available on the net!) - but I think that report sounds like total fanfic.
Seems to me there would be no way on knowing that stuff unless Reese Witherspoon and Maggie Gyllenhaal went around blabbering to sundry acquaintances /"friends" about Jake's emotions and their intimate conversations with him. These ladies are good at keeping their goings-on private in everyday life, they'd be doubly so at this time and if things really were as bad with Jake as this story says. I think it's totally fabricated. May incidentally hit on the truth, for all we know, but... no.
The fact is that we don't know the first thing about what Jake has been up to. There was an early newspaper report he'd arrived in Australia, but no images and he's not been mentioned in any further reports as being present at the gatherings that took place today. I don't think he's really there. Whatever he's doing he's keeping his own counsel and just staying completely out of the media spotlight. Good for him. I hope whatever is going on, he's doing OK.
