Michelle Williams: She confirms the birth of her fourth child

Actress Michelle Williams (44) and her husband Thomas Kail (48) have become parents again. The couple, who has been married since 2020, welcomed her third child, a daughter through a surrogate mother. The “Dawson’s Creek” actress now made this public and confirmed rumors that had already circulated a few months ago.

It is the fourth child for Williams. With Kail she has two other children, as well as the 19-year-old daughter Matilda, who comes from her relationship with the late actor Heath Ledger (1979-2008).

In an interview with guest presenter Tiffany Haddish (45), Williams thanked the surrogate, especially with the surrogate: “I have to express a big thank you to Christine, because this last baby did not come through my body, but we owe the miracle of our little girl to Christine.”

At the same time, the actress spoke openly about everyday life with three small children under the age of five. She emphasized how challenging the balance between work and family was and admitted that she often thought about when she could take time for self-car. In a humorous way, she revealed that she finds this “tank filling” partly in the event of a state of the authorities, where you can wait an hour in peace.

The birth of the fourth child also falls into a busy phase for the 44-year-old: In April 2025, “Dying for Sex” celebrated its premiere, her first production since “Die Fabelmans” (2022). The series that ran on Hulu tells the story of a woman who makes the decision after a cancer diagnosis to leave her husband after 15 years to discover a new sex life.

Williams confessed that she initially hesitated to assume the role, especially as a mother of four children: “I thought: ‘I should do a series about what?’ It was not necessarily what I imagined.
