Speaking in 2019 to Sowetan Live, Williams said his son turned his life around and remains an essential part of his life.
Williams said:
"You can imagine, I started playing professionally while I was still a teenager, so all the money and popularity can go to your head. But thankfully, I had a son, and it changed my life. I became a better human being and being a dad gave me that huge responsibility that made me have to re-evaluate my focus."
Williams, who will be joined in fatherhood by Eben Etzebeth after the Bok shared that his wife is expecting in a wedding anniversary post, added his family is crucial to his success.
