Model and fashion designer, she’s widely recognized not just for her own accomplishments but also as the wife of The Voice judge and renowned musician Pharrell Williams. Before stepping into the spotlight, she played volleyball at St. Thomas University, showcasing her athleticism and dedication early on. Her journey with Pharrell has been one filled with love and milestones — they welcomed their first child, a son named Rocket Ayer Williams, in November 2008. The couple tied the knot in October 2013, marking a beautiful chapter in their relationship. Then, in 2017, they expanded their family by welcoming triplets, adding even more joy to their lives. Throughout it all, she’s maintained a strong presence both beside Pharrell Williams and in her individual pursuits, balancing motherhood, modeling, and fashion design with grace. Her connection with Pharrell Williams continues to be a central part of her public identity, yet her personal achievements stand strongly on their own.
They had been super close for years—like, best friends forever kind of close—especially her and Pharrell. Honestly, their bond was always something special, even before anything romantic happened. At the time, she was actually seeing someone else, so things weren’t exactly simple. But still, through all that, Pharrell stayed patient. And eventually, after all that friendship and timing finally aligned, Pharrell got his moment—he asked her out. It was a big deal, considering how long they’d known each other. With everything they’d been through, it felt like a natural step, almost meant to be. And yeah, looking back, it made sense that Pharrell would be the one to make the move.
