Her sister, Jillian Hervey, was quick to showcase their sisterly bond with several images of moments the sisters shared. She captioned the post: "Thank you for always being honest, my therapist, my hypeman...I cherish our weekly facetimes and feel so fortunate to navigate womanhood with you."

Sasha Fox, Williams' daughter with Rick Fox, celebrated her big sister on the same day with snaps of her and the celebrant. The mother of four has been able to handle a healthy relationship with her kids over the years, which further influenced the love among them.
