Jesse Williams's Wife Is Demanding Sole Custody of Their Children

She paints a very different picture of the actor than his public persona.

Damn, we thought the divorce of Jesse Williams and Aryn Drake-Lee would be civil. Reportedly, it just got ugly and this appears to be only the beginning.  

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Drake-Lee, 34, is fighting for full custory of their two children. She is claiming that Jesse has their children around too many women and they are being "emotionally comprised." She accused Jesse, 36, of having angry issues, citing a road rage incident with a next-door neighbor. Drake-Lee even claimed the Grey's Anatomy star got so angry that after the neighbor flipped Jesse off, he "aggressively pursued him in his car" with their kids inside. She stated that Jesse threatened to kill the neighbor.  

She is also upset that Jesse is putting their two children on social media and accuses him of using the kids to "buffer for the negative talk about him in the media." Allegedly, she is questioning the jet-setting he does all over the world. Williams reportedly missed his daughter preschool graduation because he had to "work" by going to a celebrity soccer game in Miami.

Aryn is asking the court to give her full custody and put in an order that he cannot introduce their kids to new women until they have been dating for six months. 
This divorce is far from being over and sounds like it might drag out for several months.
