Jesse Williams and his ex-wife, Aryn Drake-Lee, have reached a new child custody arrangement. According to court paperwork obtained by E! News, the ex-couple will continue to split legal custody of their daughter Sadie and son Maceo. If couples can’t agree on things like immunizations for their children, Williams will have tie-breaking power over COVID-19 guidelines for a year. A judge in Los Angeles County Superior Court allowed the actor’s plea to change his custody schedule to accommodate his job in the Broadway production of Take Me Out.
According to the judge’s decision, Brooklyn’s Finest star will spend four consecutive days each month with his children in New York, two of which will be on weekends. Although Drake-plea Lee’s to lower Jesse’s custody time was denied, the court agreed that if her ex cancels any parenting time, he cannot ‘uncancel’ it unless there is a consensual agreement in writing. The couple should also meet and discuss extracurricular activities for their kid. If the parents can’t agree, Drake-Lee has tie-breaking power for each child’s curricular activity at a time this year and might use it if it doesn’t interfere with Williams’ vacations or time with the kids in New York.
