The shot was taken outdoors; it saw Serena leaning against a dark wire fence, her attention focused on the camera. Behind her, just out of focus, was a beautiful white house that made for a perfect backdrop.

Her hair was styled in loose curly waves that fell past her shoulders, and she barely had any jewelry on. Unfortunately, the caption was left blank, but that's okay; her fans had more than enough to say about the post.

SERENA'S MR RIGHT

Serena is currently married to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. The two have been together for quite some time, and as far as everyone knows, that will not be changing anytime soon.

It's all thanks to the work they have consciously put into understanding and loving each other. It is why Serena believes that marriage can only be bliss when both parties are willing to put in the work.

The award-winning sportswoman and her tech-inclined husband are proud and dedicated parents to a daughter named Olympia. Serena takes her duty as a mother very seriously and has even joked in the past that she and her child will remain inseparable until the tot celebrates her 18th birthday.

SERENA AS A MOTHER

Serena's job as a mother did not start off smoothly. She suffered from complications after the delivery of her daughter via c–section, and when she came out of that, she battled postpartum depression.

Oh, and who can forget the bundle of nerves she had to tangle with as a new mother. In the past, she told Vogue that there were times when she admitted to herself that she could not do what it takes to be a mother.

She even confessed to breaking down several times only to get mad at herself for doing so before feeling guilty for having such turmoil when her baby was right there.

Thankfully, she put all that behind her and focused on being a good mother to her child. Between her career and her dealings off the court, Serena is a busy bee, but she has figured out a way to make herself available to her family.

Still, she admits it is not an easy task, and it has given her a deep appreciation and respect for average women who have had to go through the same process while holding down jobs that don't encourage the kind of flexibility she enjoys.
