More than a decade after his heartbreaking death, the spirit of Robin Williams hasn’t gone far. At least, not if you ask his widow, Susan Schneider. The beloved “Good Will Hunting” actor, who died by suicide in August 2014 at age 63, is still showing up when his widow needs him most.
During a recent interview, Robin Williams’ widow, Susan Schneider, shared that her late husband still makes a point to make his presence known. She claims that Robin always seems to show up for her, especially when she is dealing with something tough. Just before a recent interview about Robin’s death, she said she saw robins fluttering in the yard. And she firmly believes that is Robin Williams’ wink to her from the other side.

The shocking loss of Robin Williams rattled the world. Initially diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2014, the comedian was secretly battling Lewy body dementia (LBD), a cruel, degenerative brain disorder that went undetected until his autopsy.
Susan Schneider has often shared her thoughts publicly since Robin Williams’passing. She’s been open about how the diagnosis brought clarity to the bizarre symptoms the comedienne experienced in his final months. From paranoia to memory problems. She reveals that Robin’s behavior changed rapidly and inexplicably, leaving both him and those closest to him frightened and confused.
Robin Williams Is Still Around In Spirit
As the symptoms worsened, Williams and Schneider decided he would go to a neurocognitive testing facility. Tragically, Williams took his own life a week before he was set to go to the facility. His wife said, “I think he didn’t want to go. I think he thought, ‘I’m going to get locked up and never come out.’“
Despite the media storm that followed Robin Williams’ death, Susan has worked tirelessly to correct the record. She slammed rumors that Robin had fallen into a deep depression or relapsed into drinking. According to her, the truth was far more complex and much sadder.
Depression wasn’t the root cause of Robin’s downfall, she stressed, according to Radar Online. It was merely a symptom of LBD. “His brain was falling apart,” she explained, emphasizing that his condition wasn’t emotional but neurological. Even Robin’s short stay in rehab before his death wasn’t about addiction. It was about self-reflection and healing.
However, according to Susan, she often receives signs from Robin that appear when she least expects them. Especially in the form of robins. It’s not just irony to her that these little birds keep popping up. To Susan, they’re a loving reminder that her soulmate hasn’t truly left her.
So, after years have passed, Robin Williams is still seemingly pulling off surprise appearances. Whether it’s flocks of robins or unexplained emotional support, Susan Schneider swears he’s still by her side. His death may have shocked the world, but his afterlife? Well, it sounds like it’s playing out like a heartwarming, slightly spooky sequel. If anyone could manage to be both a loving spirit and a posthumous prankster, it’s Robin.
