Serena Williams stuns with huge pregnancy announcement at Met Gala

Serena Williams and husband Alexis Ohanian have stunned fans upon their arrival at the Met Gala after announcing they are expecting their second child. Williams left the tennis world in shock last year when she announced her retirement from the sport.

The 23-time grand slam champion played her final match at the US Open after a glittering career that spanned more than two decades. While there has been plenty of speculation that Williams could make a return to tennis, the 41-year-old is looking to expand her family with husband Ohanian.

Williams took to social media upon her arrival at the Met Gala and announced she was pregnant. “Was so excited when Anna Wintour invited the 3 of us to the Met Gala,” she wrote, accompanied with a picture next to her husband Ohanian.

Williams and Ohanian will be welcoming their second child after daughter, Alexis Olympia. Tennis fans and celebrities rightfully went wild over the announcement.

Her good friend Caroline Wozniacki replied with love hearts. World No.1 tennis player Iga Swiatek also responded after her Madrid Open match with: “Congratulations.”

The Australian Open official account wrote: ‘What a reveal,” while actor Michael B Jordan responded with excitement.

On the red carpet, Williams addressed the announcement and was in good spirits. “I’m good, I am feeling good now,” Williams said in an interview. “I can breathe, I can stop. I am not hiding.”
