RTÉ News​2 days ago
Actress Michelle Williams has revealed she has welcomed a baby daughter via a surrogate.
The actress, 44, who is married to Hamilton director Thomas Kail, discussed having three children under the age of five during an appearance on chat show Jimmy Kimmel Live.
She is also mother to daughter Matilda, 19, who was born during her relationship with the late actor Heath Ledger.
Responding to a compliment on her figure from actress Tiffany Haddish, who is filling in for Kimmel, the Dawson's Creek star said: "Then I've got to give a big shout out to Christine, because this last baby did not come through my body.
"But the miracle of our little girl is thanks to Christine. Maybe you're watching out there, so thank you Christine.
"Thanks to Christine, I have three under five at home."
Discussing how she is managing with three little ones, she said: "Everything's good and under control. I'm the adult.
"I'm trying to figure out the sort of life-work balance.
"I hear a lot of people are talking about self-care, and I'm just wondering, when? Because I'm a working mom.
"I already have the guilt, and I don't want to take more time away from them, but I understand I need to fill up the tank."
She joked she had found a solution by "visiting our fine local establishments of government bureaucracy".
Williams added: "You say: 'I'm sorry, honey. But one day you're going to grow up, and you're going to get a job. And you're going to pay taxes, and you're going to need a social security number for that.'
"And then here's how it goes: I recommend a midday appointment because it's a little bit more crowded. And then you can claim your rightful place at the back of the line where they will let you wait in complete silence for at least one hour.
"There is free seating for all. Bring like a nail file and a to-do list and check, check, check."
She continued: "If you want a pro hack tip, don't double-check your paperwork because you might have to go back."
The actress, who discloses very little information about her private life, is best known for films including The Greatest Showman, Brokeback Mountain, Venom and Blue Valentine.
She welcomed her first child with Kail in 2020 and a second in 2022.

Celebs Go Dating star reveals exactly what the show did and didn't pay for after her date with Christine McGuinness

A WOMAN who went on a date with Christine McGuinness on Celebs Go Dating has lifted the lid on show secrets. Stunning Leanne Grant was seen bonding with the mum-of-three during the first mixer of the series before being whisked off to Ibiza to get to know her better. 4 Christine McGuinness appeared on Celebs Go Dating to find love Credit: Instagram 4 A woman she dated has opened up about the show 4 The pair hit it off straight away She has now revealed she wasn't paid to do the show and shed light on exactly what she had to fork out for on the lavish trip, which ended with Chrstine quitting the show altogether. In a new TikTok video, she explained: 'I wasn't paid for the amount of episodes I was on the show. Expenses were paid for, so my flight to Ibiza was paid for, the mixer was also paid for, the long as you have your receipts, that was all covered. 'They covered lunch and dinner. If we was off-site from the hotel everything was catered for. It was amazing. 'Chef was amazing, the staff were amazing, really, really lovely people. And we had breakfast, lunch and dinner, just like a buffet really. 'So it was like going to Ibiza on an all-inclusive holiday that I didn't have to pay for. Obviously, as a single mum of three, I was gassed.' She continued: 'I did spend a lot of my own money though, not going to lie to you, like in-duty free, a bit of alcohol, Prosecco, a couple of bottles, just to have fun, especially in the night time as well.' Despite getting on well with Christine, her time on the show came to an abrupt end when the Loose Women star - who was married to comedian Paddy McGuinness, 51, until their split in 2022 - made the shock decision to leave during the latest episode. Speaking to the show's agents, she said: "Well, I've been thinking quite a lot whilst we've been in Ibiza and I think I need to date in more of a natural environment. "I think I just would love to meet somebody and date more privately. It's where I'm kind of feeling myself going back, when I want to go freely forward. "Right. And I've made the decision to leave the agency." 4 Christine broke down in tears on tonight's episode Emotional Christine McGuinness opens up about Paddy's 'mistakes' in split saying 'the trust was broken'
