A Power Couple’s Journey
Serena Williams, the tennis titan with 23 Grand Slam singles titles, and Alexis Ohanian, the tech visionary who co-founded Reddit, have forged a remarkable partnership since meeting by chance in Rome in 2015.

Their love story culminated in a lavish wedding on November 16, 2017, in New Orleans, and has since blossomed into a family of four.

As of March 23, 2025, the couple shares two daughters: Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., born September 1, 2017, and Adira River Ohanian, born August 22, 2023.

Together, they’ve built a life that balances global fame with intimate family moments, often sharing glimpses of their joy with the world.

Olympia: The Firstborn Star
Named Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr.—affectionately called Olympia—their eldest daughter arrived just months before her parents’ wedding, marking a transformative chapter for the couple.

Her birth was dramatic; Serena faced a life-threatening pulmonary embolism, requiring an emergency C-section.

Yet, from that challenge emerged a resilient family bond. Ohanian announced her arrival on Instagram, writing, “Welcome, Alexis Olympia Ohanian, Jr., we’re so happy to meet you,” while Serena later reflected to Vogue in 2018, “She gave me strength I didn’t know I had.”

Olympia, now 7, has grown into a spirited presence, mirroring her mother’s flair. She’s already a mini-celebrity, boasting her own Instagram (@olympiaohanian
) with over 600,000 followers, where she’s chronicled twinning with Serena in matching outfits—from purple tennis gear to pink princess dresses.

Her interests span tennis (coached casually by Serena), piano, and even ownership stakes in sports teams like Angel City FC and the Los Angeles Golf Club, making her the youngest two-team owner in professional sports at age 5, per AfroTech (2023).

Adira: The Newest Addition
The family expanded with Adira River Ohanian’s arrival on August 22, 2023, a moment Ohanian celebrated on X: “Welcome, Adira River Ohanian.

Our house is teaming with love.” Serena, who announced her second pregnancy at the 2023 Met Gala, shared a TikTok captioned, “Welcome my beautiful angel,” introducing Adira to the world.

At 19 months old as of March 2025, Adira—whose name means “strong” in Hebrew—has already joined family outings, her face revealed in October 2024 on her Instagram (@adiraohanian

). Nicknamed “Bubba” by Ohanian, she’s a toddler delight, often seen in Serena’s arms or alongside big sister Olympia.

Together at the 2024 Paris Olympics
A standout moment of family unity came on July 26, 2024, when Serena, Alexis, and Olympia attended the Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony.

The event, rich with symbolic resonance given Olympia’s name, saw the trio on a rainy Parisian evening along the Seine.

Serena, an Olympic gold medalist herself (four times over), carried the torch during the ceremony, a proud nod to her legacy.

Photos from the night—shared widely on X, including by @TheTennisLetter
—captured Serena in a red gown, Ohanian in a sleek suit, and Olympia, then 6, beaming beside them.

Adira, still an infant, stayed home, but the trio’s presence underscored their shared love for sport and celebration.
Ohanian later reflected on Instagram, “Watching @serenawilliams
carry the Olympic torch with @olympiaohanian

by my side—nothing tops that.” Serena, in a Women’s Health interview (July 2024), noted, “Olympia was so excited to see the athletes. It felt like passing the torch, figuratively and literally.”
Family Life: Love, Laughter, and Legacy

Based in Florida, Serena and Alexis juggle parenthood with their powerhouse careers. Serena, post-tennis retirement in 2022, has leaned into ventures like WYN Beauty and her children’s book The Adventures of Qai Qai, inspired by Olympia’s doll.

Ohanian, who stepped away from Reddit in 2020, leads Seven Seven Six and champions initiatives like Athlos, a women’s track event where Olympia ran the track in 2024, per Sportskeeda.

Their home life brims with traditions—Ohanian’s Sunday pancakes, Serena’s gumbo lessons with Olympia (shared March 2025 on Instagram)—and a commitment to raising strong, curious girls.

Olympia’s milestones, like her first ballet recital in 2022 (People), and Adira’s beach days with Mom (Women’s Health, 2024), highlight their hands-on parenting.

Serena told Byrdie in April 2024, “Volunteering at Olympia’s school beats any Wimbledon trophy,” while Ohanian, on his podcast Business Dad, emphasized teaching Olympia resilience, banning the word “can’t.”

A Unified Front
Publicly, they shine as a unit. At the 2024 ESPYs, Serena and Olympia stunned in matching elegance—Serena in Armani Privé, Olympia in Dolce & Gabbana—while Ohanian kept it classic in Gucci (People).

Their seventh anniversary in November 2024 saw them back in New Orleans with both girls, Ohanian posting, “Thanks for giving me the two greatest humans we’ve ever met.” Even amid scrutiny—like Serena’s 2025 Super Bowl cameo with Kendrick Lamar, which Ohanian defended fiercely on X—their bond holds firm.

If you intended “Olympia” to mean a specific location (e.g., Olympia, Washington) rather than their daughter or the Olympics, let me know, and I’ll revise to reflect that! This article captures their family dynamic based on the latest available insights.
