It is no news that tennis icon Serena Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, are looking to expand their little family. The 23-time Grand Slam winner made this known in August 2022, after she finally revealed her plans to step away from the court.

However, while plans for a second baby are underway, it remains unknown when Williams and Alexis will become parents for the second time.

Shortly after the Reddit Co-founder shared the pictures, fans rushed to the comments section to air their thoughts.

With how amazing Alexis is with Olympia, fans are positive that it will be no different if and when baby number two arrives. Here are the details of his and Williams's new baby plans, which the latter recently got candid about.

Serena and Alexis' New Baby Plans

In August 2022, Williams chatted with Vogue, where she announced that she would be ending her career as a tennis player after the 2022 US Open tournament.

While many may describe Williams's decision to quit tennis as retirement, the legend would rather term it an evolution. According to the star, "retirement" does not seem like a modern word.

The Nike Ambassador made it known that she had to consider retiring after Olympia mentioned wanting a little sister. Of course, it was not easy for Williams to end her career as she loved tennis and her family. But, according to the icon, she never wanted to choose between her career and her family. In her words:

"I don't think it is fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn't be writing this because I'd be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of expanding our family."

However, despite how she felt, Williams knew that expanding her family was more important, so she had to quit tennis. The sports legend had once insinuated that her career was hindering her from having a second baby.

During a 2020 interview, Williams confessed that she would already be pregnant if she were not working. So, it is not strange that she finally chose to retire.

While many may describe Williams's decision to quit tennis as retirement, the legend would rather term it an evolution. According to the star, "retirement" does not seem like a modern word. During a chat with Meghan Markle on her Spotify podcast, Williams told the Duchess of Sussex:

"Obviously, I'm retiring professionally, but it's also an evolution. I'm doing more business things."

Then, the Serena fashion brand CEO shed some light on her new baby plans. In Williams's words: "And I really want to expand my family. And, you know, I've been putting it off for so long. And as a woman, there's only so, so long that you can put that off."

Serena Is on Mummy Duties after Her Retirement

Following Williams's retirement after the 2022 US Open tournament, the former world number one is now more focused on her family, especially her mummy duties. On September 22, 2022, the mom of one took to Instagram to reveal that she showed up for Olympia's first soccer practice.

In the caption that accompanied the clip, showing what Williams looked like as a first-time soccer mom, the former tennis player explained that Olympia was extremely nervous and would not leave her mother's side.

Later, volunteers were needed as assistant coaches, and Williams signed up as one. The sports legend further revealed that her role as an assistant coach made her look sweaty in the Instagram clip. In Williams's words:

"Clearly, I was not prepared. I just went to chill and left looking like this."

A few days later, Williams was captured again on mummy duties. This time, a short Instagram video showed her giving Olympia a similar hairstyle to a girl in Williams's new book "The Adventures of Qai Qai."

The proud mom noted that her daughter had requested to have a matching hair day with the girl in the book, whom Olympia believed was her. Overall, it is great to see Williams and her husband be such caring parents to their little girl, who might become a big sister in the near future.
