Serena Williams can’t hide the kind of mother she is during a unique moment in her living room.

Serena Williams is far from your average mom. Beyond her legendary tennis career and business empire, she shines most brightly at home patient, loving, and fully present.

Williams sits in her living room with her 18 month old daughter, Adira Ohanian, gently guiding her through colors in French. But this isn’t just quality time. Serena is teaching her more than vocabulary; she’s passing on confidence, joy, and curiosity. With every little win, Serena lets out her signature “Come on!” the same electrifying cheer that once echoed across tennis courts around the world.

For Adira, though, the magic isn’t in the words, it’s in the moment. Just being with her mom, learning through love and play, is everything.

Adira may barely be walking, but she already knows how to respond in French, and she beams with joy every time her mom praises her. These little moments, filled with love and laughter, show how Serena is nurturing not just a curious mind, but a confident soul. It’s a side Serena fans don’t always see, but one that’s just as powerful as any Grand Slam victory.

Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian Reddit co-founder and vocal advocate for paternity leave are raising two daughters: Olympia, 6, and Adira, born in August 2023. Since retiring from tennis in 2022, Serena has doubled down on entrepreneurship and motherhood. Her venture capital firm, Serena Ventures, has backed more than 85 startups, including 14 unicorns. Her fashion line, S by Serena, continues to blend bold style with empowerment.

Recently, Serena appeared alongside rising WNBA star Caitlin Clark at the NFL Annual Meeting in Florida, where they discussed the future of women in sports. Meanwhile, Alexis made headlines for undergoing preventive thyroid surgery, showing once again how this family faces challenges head-on with heart.
