Serena Williams has swarmed through the controversial sports world and established herself as one of the finest tennis professionals ever. Williams is noted for her extraordinary performances and her absolute domination of the WTA circuit for several years.
The former world No. 1 cited that her decision to “evolve away” from tennis seemed hazy but felt right in connection to her daughter. Williams gave birth to her daughter Olympia Ohanian in 2017 and has since done everything for her happiness. Furthermore, she sacrificed her tennis career for Olympia to be a better mother.
It is safe to say that Williams’ faith in Jehovah has certainly helped her gain momentously. The 41-year-old has stacked herself with 23 Grand Slam crowns. Her life beyond the court has been full of excitement and contentment as well. And, according to the recent news she shared, things are seemingly about to turn for the better.
Serena Williams most recently startled the tennis world with yet another fantastic piece of news. At the 2023 MET Gala, Williams along with her husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian announced her second pregnancy. The news although terrific, dates back to the hints she was serving up the community with for months.
Serena Williams does justice to her daughter Olympia Ohanian’s wishes
In an interview with Vogue, Williams revealed that the only thing her daughter Olympia Ohanian wants while growing up is to become a “big sister.” Her hopes, however, could not be seen through owing to her active participation in the WTA Tour at the time.
“Olympia says this a lot, even when she knows I’m listening. Sometimes before bed, she prays to Jehovah to bring her a baby sister. I’m the youngest of five sisters myself, and my sisters are my heroes. So this has felt like a moment I need to listen very carefully to,” spoke Williams.
Serena Williams is speculated to welcome her second child later this year. The news although cherishing, has closed the door to her possible tennis comeback which comes as a huge shock to her fans.

The American’s father and former tennis coach Richard Williams was desperately attempting to convince her to make a return to the WTA Tour for some time. His hopes, however, have now been vanquished. Williams has made it abundantly clear that she prioritizes family over tennis which is seemingly acceptable to her father.
