Jasmine Cephas Jones might be most widely known for her role in the original Hamilton [1] as both Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds, but the talented Broadway actress has entertainment in her blood. She's the daughter of Ron Cephas Jones, aka William from This Is Us [2], and jazz singer Kim Lesley. Before Ron was putting on Emmy-winning performances in the NBC show [3], he starred in off-Broadway and Broadway plays [4] such as 2014's Of Mice and Men.
Similarly, Jasmine starred in the Schuyler sister role when the show was off-Broadway in 2015, and she continued through 2016 with the Broadway production. She also met her now-fiancé and Hamilton costar, Anthony Ramos, when the show kicked off in 2015. The adorable couple got engaged on Christmas Eve [5] in 2018.
As we countdown the days until the 11-time Tony Award-winning stage musical makes its way to Disney+ on July 3 [6], we can't help but gush over the Cephas Jones family. Check out some sweet moments between Jasmine and her lovely parents ahead.
