Tennis great Serena Williams has revealed that she is pregnant for her second baby.
While speaking, Serena who is known for her boisterous nature told reporters on Monday night at the star-studded Met Gala in New York that there were “three of us” on the red carpet, where she arrived with husband Alexis Ohanian, the founder of Reddit.
The 41-year-old tennis great was also seen posing in a black and white gown, cradling the baby bump.
The event, which traditionally holds every first Monday of May, had its 2023 theme as, ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ honouring the late designer, who died in 2019.
The 23-times major winner announced in 2022 that she was “evolving away from tennis,” writing in a Vogue magazine article that she wanted to grow her family after welcoming daughter Olympia in 2017.
Speaking this time, Serena said, “Was so excited when Anna Wintour invited the 3 of us to the Met Gala.”
Williams was also afforded more agency in announcing her pregnancy this time, sharing the news alongside her husband Alexis Ohanian in an interview with Vogue livestream host La La Anthony.
