WHO IS DEVIN?

Devin Hervey is the third child of singer and actress Vanessa Williams. He was born on April 14th in Mount Kisco in the city of New York. The 28-year-old did not, however, follow his mother's footsteps, and he has managed to stay out of the public eyes over the years.

It wasn't always rosy and bright for the actress, as she once revealed that she had an abortion in senior high school.

Devin is highly fascinated with motorbikes as he has shared many pictures of them and seems to enjoy riding them. He also enjoys art as he is an artist and is said to be constantly creating.

Another interesting feature of the young man is the striking resemblance with his father, Ramon Hervey, William's former manager. Videos and pictures uploaded of the two posing together reveal an uncanny resemblance.

About six years ago, Williams remarried. She tied the knot with Jim Skrip, an accountant, on the 4th of July 2015 after meeting three years back; the couple is still together to date.

Her daughters have followed in her footsteps and are making names for themselves in entertainment. Julian is a music artist, Melanie, a barre instructor, and Sasha, a fashion model.

It wasn't always rosy and bright for the actress, as she once revealed that she had an abortion in senior high school and was molested a couple of times before that. These experiences she described as awful, terrifying, and sad.

The journey to success has certainly not been an easy one for Williams, but she has come a long way in the industry despite controversies and divorces.
