News exploded last week about “Grey’s Anatomy” star and activist Jesse Williams divorcing his wife of 5 years. He is apparently seeking full custody of their children and recently filed for the divorce.
Rumors are also swirling that he left his wife for actress Minka Kelly.
Sources tell Page Six that the two are apparently dating after working together on previous projects and their alleged romance started last year.
Page Six writes:
Married “Grey’s Anatomy” star Jesse Williams and Derek Jeter’s ex Minka Kelly are “definitely seeing each other,” according to a source close to the actor.
“They started seeing each other last year. He ended things with his wife this year. He’ll be in Paris with Minka later this week. People know [about the relationship], but weren’t saying anything because he was still married,” the source said.
Kelly posted a photo of herself with Williams in France in January, but they have not publicly addressed claims that they’re seeing each other.
Friends have accused Williams of trading his family for Hollywood fame since news broke that he is leaving his wife, Aryn Drake-Lee.
“He’s going to wake up and be like, ‘What did I do?’ He has two children. This isn’t Hollywood, where you can say ‘cut.’ [He and Minka] are in lust,” the source said.
However, a source close to Williams insists that he only recently met Kelly while working on a video game in France — even though they appeared in the movie “Lee Daniels’ The Butler” together in 2013.
“They were both in the film, but never shot at the same time. They might have been at the same premiere event, but they never crossed paths. They only officially met when in France doing the video game,” the source said. “He’s been separated from Aryn since at least January. That’s when they were officially starting to deal with the process of it all.”
Typical. He’ll get his karma one day though. Trust.
He really ain’t sh-t.
This is a blessing for his wife. She deserves better anyway.
So basically all that talk he did at whatever award show that was clearly was nothing more than talk
So he was just pro black for a comeup?
Very disappointing.
He’s a fraud and I’m mad I bought into the hype. I hope his wife stays strong and has peace through all of this.
He sounds like a dog. What a shame.
Makes me wonder if him and Minka hadn’t been together for awhile, and him and wife were nothing more than an “arrangement”. His wife is a plain Jane pretty black chick which is good for his look and image. Now that his image has been embraced as a “black man” and that he has a lot more fans, he’s now free to “crossover” and go Hollywood. Honestly that speech was a little funny to me, because he has a “white mama” and almost full black daddy. But ppl were so quik to call me an Uncle Tom lol ya ok.
He will get his one day, karma will find him. At least his wife will be now be free to find someone that deserves her and will treat her better.
