Jesse Williams and partner Alejandra Onieva have welcomed their first baby together, his third.
In a Monday, September 28, Instagram video, Williams, 45, opened the fridge to rummage through baby bottles as Onieva, 34, spoke Spanish with a group in the background.
“English, alright, English! I want my son to speak English,” he said to the people behind him. “Bad enough his name is Hector.”
The video appears to be a reenactment of 1989’s Do The Right Thing, where Spike Lee’s character says nearly the same words while going through the fridge. Williams shared a clip from the film in his Instagram carousel on Monday.
Williams did not share further details about the pair’s child, captioning the upload with a series of emojis, “🌍 🌎 🌏 🪐 🌖 ☀️ 🌱 🌳.”
Onieva, for her part, reposted the carousel via her Instagram Story on Monday and also shared a clip of the baby’s feet resting on her stomach.

The Grey’s Anatomy actor previously welcomed daughter Sadie and son Maceo with ex-wife Aryn Drake-Lee. The pair, who wed in 2012, separated five years later.
Williams, for his part, has been candid about navigating parenthood through the years. In 2023, Williams shared that his upbringing has “tremendously influenced” how he has strived to raise his children.
“You try to make sure to expand on the good and try to reduce things that were scary or negatively influenced you and protect your kids without rendering them unprepared for the realities of their life,” Williams told Parade at the time. “So all of that stuff is informative, and I think all parents can relate to hearing their own parents in their voice as they parent. I definitely find myself surprised at how often I sound like my dad or mom.”
The following year, Williams opened up about finding time to be there for his children while filming Hotel Costiera in Italy.
“[I was] waking up at 3 a.m. to call the kids because I’m nine hours ahead of them, so sleep was really tough,” he told People in 2025.
