Michelle Williams Is Pregnant & Engaged to 'Fosse/Verdon' Director Thomas Kail

2020 is going to be a big year for Michelle Williams as she’s pregnant with her second child and she’s set to marry director Thomas Kail!

The 39-year-old Oscar-nominated actress worked with Thomas on the FX series Fosse/Verdon, which earned her an Emmy Award last year. She’s nominated for the show at this weekend’s Golden Globes.

If you aren’t aware, Thomas is also the Tony-winning director of the smash hit musical Hamilton. He also won two Emmys for his work on Fox’s Grease: Live.

People reports that Michelle and Thomas, 42, were spotted shopping for baby clothes at a maternity boutique in London, where she has been filming Venom 2.

Michelle is the mother of a 14-year-old daughter named Matilda, whose father is the late actor Heath Ledger.

This will be the second marriage for Michelle, who split from husband Phil Elverum earlier this year after being married for less than a year. It will also be the second marriage for Thomas, who was previously married to actress Angela Christian.

Michelle Williams Talks About Finding Joy from Dancing

Michelle Williams poses for a portrait with her co-star Sam Rockwell while attending FX’s segment at the 2019 Winter TCA Tour on Monday (February 4) in Pasadena, Calif.

The award-winning actors are starring in the new series Fosse/Verdon, based on the two dance legends.

Michelle opened up about preparing for the role.

“To have… a little bit of vocabulary that I knew [in dance] has been helpful, but this is a next-level degree of difficulty,” Michelle said (via ET). “I danced a little as a kid, but nothing to write home about. And then all of a sudden, [dancing in roles] just keeps coming up for me.”

“It’s a place I’ve found an unexpected amount of joy, so I keep wanting to return to it,” she added.
