49ers Star's Baby Passes Away at 35 Weeks

Sondra Williams, the wife of San Francisco 49ers pro offensive tackle Trent Williams, announced the tragic death of their infant son at just 35 weeks, People reported.

In an Instagram post on Sunday, Sondra shared that their son, Trenton O'Brien Williams Jr., was stillborn on Nov. 24. "????It’s been extremely hard trying to process the saddest hello and goodbye that I’ve ever had to endure," Sondra wrote of their “forever angel” on Instagram. "Last Sunday night on 11/24/24; I welcomed your lifeless 4lb 8oz 18.5 in long little body at 11:38 p.m. At only 35 weeks, your impactful and quick arrival didn’t even give mommy time to get an epidural. I’m so grateful to have had your Aunt Katina (who also cut your cord) and nurse Hannah by my side. ????????."

Sondra went on to reveal that Trenton’s twin had actually died in the womb earlier this year. Trenton was summarily diagnosed with Trisoma-13, a disease in which chromosomes attach themselves to others and create a potentially life-threatening condition. Trisoma 13 affects roughly 1 in 16,000 live births, according to the Mississippi Board of Health.

“As much as I tried to prepare myself for our meeting, I wasn’t prepared nor would I ever be. After losing your twin early in the pregnancy, I prayed and hoped that your diagnosis of Trisomy 13 wasn’t true and wouldn’t be the fate of my long awaited beautiful Son-shine.☀️," Sondra wrote.

Sondra continued: “Thank God for allowing us to bond for 35 weeks and for me to birth you so I could hold you in my arms. I’m at peace knowing you will never have to suffer. Although I will never hear your soft coos and cries or see those beautiful little eyes staring up at me, I am grateful to God for the time I shared with you. ????????Madison loved listening to your heartbeat and watching your waves of movement in my tummy. Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr., my sweet baby boy, we love you our Forever Angel!
