MEET VANESSA'S KIDS

Vanessa Williams is a mother of four, having two more kids in addition to Jillian and Devin. She shares her three oldest, Melanie Hervey, Jillian Hervey, and Devin Hervey, with her first husband, Ramon Hervey.

The oldest of the brood, Melanie grew up to become a Pilates and barre instructor, with one acting credit in the movie, "The Courage To Love."

Vanessa's second daughter, Jillian, became a singer like her mom and is one half of the famous R&B duo Lion Babe and has a few acting credits. The band boasts of hit tracks like "Rockets."

Devin is the 58-year-old's only son. According to his Instagram bio, he is an artist who enjoys creating things. Additionally, the iconic actress has one daughter, Sasha Fox, with her second husband, NBA's Rick Fox, to who she was married for five years.

Sasha is already following in her mom's pageantry footsteps, making a name for herself as a model. Vanessa has no children with her current husband, Jim Skrip, to who she has been married since 2015.

GROWING UP WITH VANESSA WILLIAMS

Being born into a family of music enthusiasts contributed to Vanessa's career path. The mom of four grew up in Millwood with her brother, Chris Williams, and their parents, who both worked as music instructors.

By the time Vanessa was ten, she was already invested in the family's passion, embracing music and dance. Her interest in the arts availed her a common bonding ground with her mom.

During an interview in 2012, the actress and her mom, Helen, discussed the strict upbringing the former was subjected to, and how their relationship has evolved over the years. Helen divulged:

"It's more adult-to-adult relationship now, rather than the domineering mom, as they tend to think I was, to a more understanding relationship."

The singer also agreed to her mom's words, saying becoming a mom herself has made her understand some of her mom's past decisions. That, in turn has helped them develop a more loving and understanding relationship.
