Jesse Williams is a father again. The actor and his girlfriend, Spanish model Alejandra Onieva, have welcomed their first child together, according to E! News. It is Williams' third child overall.
The baby's name, sex, and exact birth date were not immediately released. Representatives for Williams did not respond to requests for comment. Onieva has not posted about the birth on her public social media accounts.
Williams, 44, already shares two children with his ex-wife, actress Aryn Drake-Lee. The former couple, who married in 2012 and divorced in 2017, have a daughter, Sadie, and a son, Maceo. Williams has spoken publicly about co-parenting since the split.
The "Grey's Anatomy" alum has kept his relationship with Onieva largely out of the spotlight. The two were first linked in 2019 and have since appeared together at occasional public events. Onieva, who is from Madrid, has worked as a model and actress in Spain.
The birth adds another chapter to Williams' busy post-"Grey's Anatomy" career. He left the medical drama in 2021 after 12 seasons as Dr. Jackson Avery. Since then, he has taken roles in film and television, including a starring turn in the Broadway revival of "Take Me Out," which earned him a Tony Award nomination in 2022.
Williams has also stayed active in civil rights advocacy. He produced and appeared in the 2016 documentary series "Stay Woke: The Black Lives Matter Movement" and has used his platform to speak on racial justice issues. He directed the 2023 film "Finding Your Roots" episode featuring his own family history.
News of the birth comes as Williams prepares for several upcoming projects. He is set to appear in the film "The Dutchman" and has been attached to other productions in development. Details about his personal life have remained scarce since his divorce, which was finalized after a lengthy legal battle over custody and spousal support.
Onieva, 32, has a following in Spain's fashion and entertainment industries. She has appeared in Spanish television series and walked for major brands. The couple has not announced whether they plan to marry.
Neither Williams nor Onieva has publicly confirmed the birth as of Tuesday. E! News was the first to report the arrival. Fans of the actor flooded social media with congratulatory messages after the report circulated.
Williams' ex-wife, Drake-Lee, has not commented on the news. The two share joint custody of their children, according to court records from their divorce proceedings.
