Ohanian and Williams welcomed their daughter on September 1, 2017. “We’re not spending a day apart until she’s eighteen,” Williams said during a 2017 interview with Vogue. According to her, having a baby changed her outlook in life.

"When I’m too anxious I lose matches, and I feel like a lot of that anxiety disappeared when Olympia was born. Knowing I’ve got this beautiful baby to go home to makes me feel like I don’t have to play another match. I don’t need the money or the titles or the prestige. I want them, but I don’t need them. That’s a different feeling for me.”

OLYMPIA'S BIRTH WAS PRETTY TOUGH ON SERENA

Although Williams had a fairly easy pregnancy, the day that her daughter was born was intensely hard for her. In fact, she admitted to CNN that it almost turned out to be fatal.

"It began with a pulmonary embolism, which is a condition in which one or more arteries in the lungs becomes blocked by a blood clot. Because of my medical history with this problem, I live in fear of this situation. So, when I fell short of breath, I didn't wait a second to alert the nurses."

Even her C-section wound popped open because she was coughing due to embolism.

After spending six weeks in bed after delivering her daughter, she survived all the health complications.
