Michelle Williams: Radiant Red Carpet Return After Surprise Baby!
SPOTTED: Michelle Williams Steals the Show with Her Post-Baby Glow!
The highly anticipated reopening of W New York – Union Square was the place to be last Friday, and guess who made a stunning appearance? None other than Oscar-nominated actress Michelle Williams, 45, who turned heads in a sultry black asymmetrical gown that left everyone green with envy.
Just weeks after revealing the arrival of her newborn baby girl via surrogacy, Michelle looked absolutely radiant as she walked the red carpet. The Manchester by the Sea star's glowing complexion was no doubt due to her newfound motherhood, but let's be real – she's always been a natural beauty.
As one of the first public appearances since welcoming her new addition with husband Thomas Kail (the father of three of her four children), Michelle seemed especially radiant. The Emmy nominee exuded effortless elegance among an eclectic guest list that included Jane Krakowski, Ella Emhoff (stepdaughter of Kamala Harris), Lucien Laviscount, Hari Nef, Richie Shazam, Slick Rick, Moses Sumney, Sophia Culpo, and Aurora Culpo.
But what's really got everyone talking is Michelle's surrogacy journey. Just last month, she revealed the news on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, crediting her surrogate Christine for making it all possible. When guest host Tiffany Haddish complimented Michelle on her post-baby figure, Michelle couldn't help but give a shoutout to her miracle worker.
"Then I've got to give a big shout out to Christine, cuz this last baby did not come through my body," Michelle quipped. "The miracle of our little girl is thanks to Christine. Maybe you're watching out there - thank you, Christine."
It's no secret that motherhood can be a challenging balancing act, especially in the cutthroat world of Hollywood. But Michelle has always been praised for her dedication to both her career and family life. When asked about finding work-life balance as a working mom, she confessed: "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."
It seems Michelle is living proof that you can have it all – or at least most things – as she juggling her career with motherhood. And speaking of her rare moments of private time, the actress joked that she loves to spend it visiting local government offices.
"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,'" Michelle quipped.
But what really got everyone's attention was the star-studded guest list, which read like a Who's Who of Hollywood A-listers. It seemed like every celebrity worth mentioning was there, from Toro y Moi and Desiree, who provided the night's soundtrack, to Richie Shazam and Slick Rick, who brought their signature flavor to the high-energy cocktail party.
As for Michelle's husband Thomas Kail, he's best known for directing Lin-Manuel Miranda's smash musicals In the Heights and Hamilton on Broadway and Off-Broadway. The couple tied the knot in 2020, and it seems they're still going strong – with their four adorable kids keeping them on their toes.
All in all, Michelle Williams' appearance at W New York – Union Square was the stuff of dreams – or at least a very good night out in Manhattan. With her stunning looks, effortless elegance, and hilarious wit, she's truly one of Hollywood's most beloved stars.
