It's A Baby For CT Television News Reporter

It's a girl for WFSB-TV's Consumer Investigative Reporter Cassidy Williams.

The little bundle of joy, named Valerie Marie, was born last week, Williams announced over the weekend on Facebook.

"I woke up Thursday planning to go to work, but soon realized baby girl had other plans," Williams wrote. "She was born early Friday morning, and we are now happy, healthy and home."

Williams has been with WFSB since January 2023, and is a graduate of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she obtained degrees in both Broadcast Journalism and Political Science with minors in Sociology and Public Relations, according to her bio.

The veteran reporter was with FOX6 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin before coming to Connecticut, and was a multimedia journalist at WSBT in South Bend, Indiana prior to that.

Valerie Marie is at least the fourth baby born to a Connecticut television news personality this year.

As expected, Williams is not holding back about the newest member of her family.

"This reporter is very biased when it comes to this topic, but I have to report she is perfect!" Williams wrote.
