Serena Williams donates leftover breast milk, prompting jokes that she’s creating future tennis stars
Tennis legend Serena Williams is donating some of her leftover breast milk to strangers.
Williams, who gave birth to her second child, a daughter named Adira River, in August, shared Wednesday on Instagram that she had leftover breast milk from a recent trip, and chose to donate it to help others.
“I’m really excited to donate some breast milk that I have leftover from my trip in New York to people who really need it,” Williams can be heard saying in a video that shows her opening a freezer where the breast milk is stored. “It’ll be anonymous, but I’m super excited to just help in some way.”
Williams wrote in the video’s caption that she was screened before being approved to donate. She did not name the organization to which she plans to donate her breast milk.
The prospect of Williams’s breast milk being anonymously donated to babies was enough for her followers to note how lucky those unknowing babies would be.
