Ramona Edith Williams, who took the No. 1 spot on an IMDb list of the “Best Kid Actresses of 2020,” is now portraying the role of “Makayla” on Chicago P.D. As the adoptive child of Kim Burgess, she was predicted to bring a major turning point in the officer’s life, and the viewers were gradually taking interest in her.
So, who is she? Get to know more about her ethnicity, parents, height, and age as you scroll down.
Ramona Edith Williams Chicago PD
Ramona Edith Williams as “Makayla” was first introduced on Chicago P.D back in Season 8, and her introduction was marked by a tragedy that gave her nightmares throughout the show. In case you missed it, her biological father had murdered her entire family right in front of her.
So, the kind-hearted Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) and Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) then adopt Ramona as their own and try their hardest to provide for Makayla. Over time, Burgess then finds herself with desires to have “more boundaries with Makayla,” which naturally puts her at odds with Adam.
The last we saw them, the rift between the officers was affecting Makayla. Let’s just hope that the officers makeup soon, and live as a happy family.
Trivia: Ramona confessed that though she can easily make herself look like she’s been traumatized, she never actually had any traumatizing experience in real life.
