Robin Williams Death Update: Zelda Williams Attends First Event Since Father's Passing
The daughter of the late Robin Williams attended her first Hollywood event Tuesday since her father's death. She appeared at a Nintendo party held at Bootsy Bellows nightclub.
The 25-year-old was smiling and laughing as she played the "Super Smash Bros U" Celebrity Fight Club bash. She dallied around with a few people in the crowd, including Keegan Allen from "Pretty Little Liars" and Rick Malambri from "Step Up 3D."
Zelda and her dad had a strong gaming bond. Seeing her at a Nintendo event is fitting.
Robin Williams named his daughter after Princess Zelda from "The Legend of Zelda" because he had to give her a name just as magical as she is. They also appeared in ad spots for the company in the past.
Since Robin Williams' suicide in August, Zelda has made two appearances. The first was for a tribute to her late father to throw out the first pitch at Game 5 of the World Series in San Francisco. Her brothers Zak and Cody came along with Billy Crystal to honor Robin Williams in the Bay Area, a place he called home.
On Friday, Robin's autopsy results were released that reported he died from asphyxia due to hanging, and there were no illegal drugs in his system at the time of his death.
The actor suffered from depression and had been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in the fall of 2013. In the days leading to his death, he had a recent increase in paranoia.
TMZ reported that Robin also suffered from an Alzheimer's-like condition called Lewy body dementia, which may have contributed to Williams's decision to end his own life.
After briefly quitting social media following Robin's death and paying tribute to him with a new tattoo, Zelda is moving on with her life.
