Michelle Williams opens up about baby No. 4, thanks her surrogate
Michelle Williams opened up this week about the arrival of her fourth child and gave a sweet shoutout to her surrogate. During an appearance on " Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Monday, the "Dawson's Creek" alum confirmed she and husband Thomas Kail recently welcomed their third baby together via surrogacy. In addition to her three children with Kail, Williams is also a mom to daughter Matilda, whom she shared with the late Heath Ledger. The topic of baby No. 4 came up after guest host Tiffany Haddish complimented Williams on her figure, saying she looked like she'd never had kids. "Then I've got to give a big shout out to Christine, because this last baby did not come through my body," Williams replied, appearing to reference her surrogate. "But the miracle of our little girl is thanks to Christine. Maybe you're watching out there --thank you, Christine." She added, "Thanks to Christine, I have three under 5 at home." Williams went on to reflect on motherhood with humor and honesty. "Everything's good and under control. I'm the adult," she said. "It's good, it's just really busy. I'm trying to figure out the sort of life-work balance." Williams admitted that while everyone talks about self-care, it's easier said than done. "I already have the guilt, and I don't want to take more time away from them, but I understand, like, I need to fill up the tank," she said. As for how she recharges, Williams joked that she's found peace in an unlikely place: the Social Security office. "They will let you wait in complete silence for at least one hour," she said. "I have it all figured out." In an interview with " Good Morning America" that aired this week, Williams credited her family as the support system that grounds her.

Actress Michelle Williams confirms birth of baby daughter via 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.

Jimmy Kimmel Just Revealed That Matt Damon Genuinely Almost Died In His House Amid Their 22-Year Faux Feud — And He's Well Aware Of How Suspicious That Would Have Looked
Any pop culture lover is probably aware of the faux feud between Matt Damon and Jimmy Kimmel, which all started way back in 2003 when Jimmy ended an episode of his late-night talk show by jokingly saying: 'Apologies to Matt Damon, but we ran out of time.' As it happens, Matt was never billed to appear on the show, with Jimmy later explaining on NPR: 'We had a bad show…. The guests were bad, and I was feeling pretty bad about myself at the end of the program.' He added that he only made the joke for the amusement of one of his producers, sharing: 'Matt Damon was just the first name that popped into my head. I was trying to think of an A-list star and somebody we absolutely would not bump if he was on the show.' This joke immediately became a running gag on Jimmy Kimmel Live, with the host ending his show with the same quip night after night. During an appearance on The Bill Simmons Podcast, Matt admitted that this off-the-cuff moment from Jimmy 'changed the rest of [their] lives' as he confirmed that he'd never even met the host prior to that moment. Related: Matt finally did appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live three years later, in 2006, and the two fully leaned into the bit by having Jimmy end the show right after introducing Matt as his guest. At the time, Matt jokingly started cussing out the host and stormed off stage. Matt returned the following year, and enlisted Jimmy's then-girlfriend Sarah Silverman to prank Jimmy, with Sarah recording a song called: 'I'm Fucking Matt Damon,' and the two shooting a music video together that joked about them having a secret sexual relationship behind Jimmy's back. For what it's worth, 'I'm Fucking Matt Damon' ended up winning a Creative Arts Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics. Jimmy got his own back in 2009, when he called in Matt's longtime best friend for the song: 'I'm Fucking Ben Affleck,' and an accompanying music video. Related: The gags have continued in a similar vein throughout the years, with the two men regularly pranking one another and poking fun at their 'rivalry.' So, with all of this in mind, it's pretty on brand that Matt genuinely almost died when he had dinner at Jimmy's house, with Jimmy only just sharing the previously untold story about how he almost actually killed Matt Damon. Related: The anecdote came to light during Jimmy's recent interview with Variety, and how suspicious it would have looked if the Hollywood actor had died at his hands after decades of public play-fighting was not lost on Jimmy. 'Matt Damon was over at my house one night for dinner. I made pork ribs. He came late, was very hungry, and started eating fast,' Jimmy told the publication. 'He started choking on a pork rib. It was stuck in his throat for about an hour and a half.' 'His brother was there. I said: 'We have got to get him to the hospital,' because if he dies in my house, I'm going to prison for the rest of my life. I will never be able to explain this as anything other than a murder,' the star went on to quip, but thankfully, the trio were able to find a solution with the help of the trusty internet. Related: 'We did a lot of YouTube-ing and finally concluded that eating little bits of bread was the way to get that rib to work its way down into his stomach — and bread saved him,' Jimmy concluded. 'We tried the Heimlich many times. It was too far down.' Whew, thank goodness for YouTube! Needless to say, I'm personally very glad that Matt Damon didn't choke to death on a pork rib in Jimmy Kimmel's house. Let me know your thoughts on Jimmy's anecdote in the comments below!
