A PROUD MOTHER

"I am not sure who took this picture but working and being a mom is not easy. I am often exhausted, stressed, and then I go play a professional tennis match," Williams captioned the post.

She also noted that motherhood is not all about glamorous looks while raising a child. Williams ended her caption with the hashtags "no filter," "no makeup," and "no hairbrush."

FASHIONISTA-IN-THE MAKING

She noted that Alexis Olympia is already two years old. The professional tennis player worried that she had waited too long to have another child.

She made this statement during an event at a mall in Miami, where she showed her fashion line called S By Serena. She was with her daughter and husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, as reported by Page Six.

William's fashion line is all about making a statement, inspired by women who have taken up space and made an impact. Clothes with sequins, animal prints, and velvet were part of the pieces under her fashion collection.
