Vanessa welcomed Sasha in 1999 during her marriage to her second husband, Rick Fox. The couple tied the knot in the same year they welcomed their first child together.

In 2004, Rick, who formerly played for the Los Angeles Lakers, filed for divorce from Williams. While speaking about the split, Staci Wolfe — Rick's spokesman at the time — said:

"They are both extremely devoted parents, so the most important thing to them right now is the welfare of their child."

Before her marriage to Rick, Vanessa had been formerly married to Ramon Hervey, with whom she had three kids. In a 2019 interview, the former beauty queen spoke about her marriage experiences over time.

During the interview, Williams explained that her first marriage crashed due to the pressure of having to balance her professional life and her family life.

Williams also revealed that there had been problems of infidelity in the marriage. According to her, she put up with it until she couldn't anymore.

Vanessa is currently married to Jim Skrip, whom she revealed to have met during one of her frequent trips to Egypt. The couple tied the knot in 2015 and have been together since then.
