HER dad was a notorious career criminal now Carl Williams’ daughter Dhakota wants her own day in court — as a lawyer.
The 17-year-old’s favourite subject at school is legal studies and she is now focused on making more of it.
“I want to get into law at university so I can become a lawyer,” Dhakota revealed to The Daily Telegraph. But Dhakota — portrayed as a young child in Channel 9’s hit TV drama Underbelly about Melbourne’s early noughties gangland wars — is also into fashion, acting and modelling and has her own agent.
She recently ramped-up her social media presence, posting a series of saucy, voluptuous Kardashian-like images to her private page, which has more than 3000 followers.
And her mum thinks Dhakota could make it as a supermodel.
“Her father would be super proud of her,” Roberta Williams said.
“I said years ago that she was going to be the next Megan Gale. She is just beautiful.”

The most memorable pictures of Dhakota are rooted in sadness. There was a candid snap of an adoring Dhakota hugging her father during a prison visit, and then, later, a heartbreaking image of the little girl tearily clutching a photograph of the criminal kingpin at his funeral.
These days the Year 11 student posts shots of herself with girlfriends, the most recent of which tagged high rolling Mahogany Room at Crown Casino in Melbourne as its location.
Crown was a regular haunt of her father, who was killed in Victoria’s Barwon Prison in April 2010 when serving life sentences for the murders of Jason and Lewis Moran and Mark Mallia.
Dhakota’s mum, Carl’s widow Roberta Williams has never been in trouble herself.
