Serena Williams and her husband Alexis Ohanian have each announced the birth of their second daughter, whom they named Andira River Ohanian. Serena had resigned from lawn tennis after a tournament last year to give more time to growing her family, after hinting on the strain the sports is putting on her family.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Alexis Ohanian congratulated his wife, caliing her the greatest mother of all times, and thanking her for giving him another ‘incomparable gift’.

‘@serenawilliams you’ve now given me another incomparable gift — you’re the GMOAT,” he said. “Thanks to all the amazing medical staff who took care of my wife & our daughter 🙏 I’ll never forget the moment I introduced @olympiaohanian to her baby sister.

Your peace would have been like a river, your well-being like the waves of the sea.’

Serena disclosed in 2018 that she nearly died during the birth of their first daughter Olympia.

‘I almost died after giving birth to my daughter, Olympia. Yet I consider myself fortunate. While I had a pretty easy pregnancy, my daughter was born by emergency C-section after her heart rate dropped dramatically during contractions.

‘The surgery went smoothly. Before I knew it, Olympia was in my arms. It was the most amazing feeling I’ve ever experienced in my life. But what followed just 24 hours after giving birth were six days of uncertainty.

‘It began with a pulmonary embolism, which is a condition in which one or more arteries in the lungs becomes blocked by a blood clot. Because of my medical history with this problem, I live in fear of this situation.

‘So, when I fell short of breath, I didn’t wait a second to alert the nurses. This sparked a slew of health complications that I am lucky to have survived.’

Serena had been competing in the first weeks of the pregnancy.

Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian have spoken about the birth of their daughters, revealing how important it is in their shedule that Serena’s health is being well considered.

‘We’re not first-time parents anymore. I feel more confident about having a newborn, all of those things that I just had zero confidence about with Olympia because I’d never even been around babies at that point in my life.’

‘We’re also obviously taking every precaution and doing everything we can to make sure everything goes smoothly for Serena.’

Many have congratulated the public figures via the social media.
