Serena Jameka Williams is a professional tennis player from the United States.
She has held the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) singles world No. 1 ranking for 319 weeks, including a joint-record 186 consecutive weeks, and has ended as the year-end No. 1 five times.
She has won the most Grand Slam singles championships in the Open Era and the second-most all time (after Margaret Court’s 24).
On September 13, the tennis pro announced that she and her partner Alexis Ohanian had given birth to a daughter, whom they called Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr.
Williams disclosed on Twitter in 2017 that her daughter’s name is also a nod to the Australian Open, which Serena famously won while pregnant with her kid.
In mid-April 2017, the tennis icon confirmed she was 22 weeks pregnant.
The baby’s due date was set for the end of August or the beginning of September, and the actress went into labor on September 1.
