Serena announced that she was pregnant with her first child in April 2017. She gave birth to her daughter Olympia, 5, in September of that year, before she and Alexis tied the knot. The tennis icon did have some troubles after giving birth, suffering from a pulmonary embolism, which made her return to tennis more difficult, per VogueAfter having Olympia, she did reveal that she was enjoying seeing a younger version of herself in her daughter. “Now that I’m 36 and I look at my baby, I remember that this was also one of my goals when I was little, before tennis took over, when I was still kind of a normal girl who played with dolls. Oh, my God, I loved my dolls,” she told Vogue.

As Olympia has grown up, Serena has shared many glimpses of her little girl on social media. The mother-daughter duo often dresses in matching outfits, and it’s easy to see that she’s absolutely a doting mother. Given how much tennis played a part in Serena’s upbringing, many people have wondered whether her daughter would also play the sport. Serena has shown that her daughter has an interest in a few different sports, even showing clips of her playing soccer. Unfortunately for fans, it doesn’t seem like Olympia has much interest in tennis, as she revealed in a March 2023 interview on Person to Person with Norah Donnell. “She doesn’t actually like to play tennis too much,” she said. “That’s a little disappointing for me, but she’s actually really good at it. So we are trying to figure out a way to get her to play a little bit.”

Baby No. 2

Serena revealed that she was pregnant with her second child during an appearance at the 2023 Met Gala in May. She showed off her baby bump in a tight black Gucci dress. After the event, she revealed that she and Alexis waited to tell Olympia the exciting news because she “can’t keep a secret.” She posted the sweet video of her and Alexis telling her about the baby on her social media.
