In the video, Serena and her baby were at an amusement park, and as the mother of one suggested, Olympia seemed uninterested and probably even wanted to go home.

However, many decided to disregard how cute the mother-daughter duo looked in the clip and focus on the little darling's hair, which, according to them, was unkempt. Most people shamed the Tennis star for taking her child out with her hair so messy. Comments like:

"Please put some coconut oil in that baby's hair" "too much money for her hair to not be done" flooded the Instagram page.

This is not the first time the "mommy shamers" will be going after Serena for something she did or didn't do concerning her adorable baby.

During an interview where Serena referred to her daughter as a "wild child," she detailed how she's dealt with mommy shamers over time. The Tennis champion who isn't new to backlash stated that she has learnt to shake them haters off. She said,

"Everyone has a critique nowadays," she says. "I've been getting critiqued my whole life. At the end of the day, everyone can have an opinion. I'm not going to tear down someone's opinion. But I try to personally have positive opinions."

Contrary to the shamers' belief, Serena in fact takes care of her daughter's hair. In an Instagram post, the mom of one shared with her fans an intimate session where she was braiding Olympia's hair. In the caption of the adorable image, Serena wrote about how much she enjoys styling her baby's hair because it allows her bond with her child.

So as you can see, shamers back off!!!
