Williams got married to Alexis Ohanian in November 2017. A few months ahead of their wedding, they welcomed their first daughter, Olympia. Almost six years later, the couple welcomed their second daughter, Adira, in 2023. The American had already ruled the tennis world, and now, she was seen preparing Adira for the same.

The former World No. 1 shared a picture with her 2-year-old daughter on the tennis court on Instagram. The mother-daughter duo was seen adorably playing tennis. Williams was seen teaching her daughter the sport and penned a caption that read:

Earlier this year, in August, Serena Williams kept the promise she made to her daughters, Olympia. She embarked on an adorable trip with her daughters to see the Wonders of the World. In their first stop, they visited the Niagara Falls in Ontario. The former tennis player shared several endearing snaps from the trip with a caption that read:

"A year ago I told @olympiaohanian that we would start an epic girls trip that would include the 7 wonders of the world, and there are a lot of them! Natural wonders. Man-made wonders. Ancient wonders. So we are going to do them all. We started with #NiagaraFalls ... where to next?"

When Serena Williams opened up about not forcing her kids into tennis

In a conversation with Vogue in 2018, Serena Williams opened up about not forcing her daughters into tennis. Talking about the adversities she endured in her life, including racism and sexist remarks, she also faced serious health issues during her career.

In the interview, Williams made it clear that she never wanted her daughters to go through everything she went through. Talking about their future, she said:

“I would hate her to have to deal with comparisons or expectations. It’s so much work, and I’ve given up so much. I don’t regret it, but it’s like Sliding Doors: Go through a different door and lead a different life. I’d like her to have a normal life. I didn’t have that.

“I think sometimes women limit themselves. I’m not sure why we think that way, but I know that we’re sometimes taught to not dream as big as men, not to believe we can be a president or a CEO, when in the same household, a male child is told he can be anything he wants. I’m so glad I had a daughter. I want to teach her that there are no limits.”

Serena Williams retired from tennis three years after her first daughter was born.
