Serena Williams Pregnant? Everything to Know About the Tennis Legend’s Family

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Is Serena Williams pregnant?

The tennis legend, perhaps the greatest athlete of all time, has embraced motherhood.

She has even continued her career on the court while pregnant — winning the Australian Open Grand Slam before Olympia’s birth.

How many children does she have? Is another baby on the way?

How many children does Serena Williams have?

Serena Williams is a mother of two. She shares both children with her husband, Alexis Ohanian.

In April of 2017, an accidental Snapchat post revealed her baby bump.

It also revealed that she had been pregnant while winning the Australian Open Grand Slam.

At the time, she was pregnant with Alexis Olympia, who goes by “Olympia.”

Presumably rather than share a name with her father, which is understandable. Serena welcomed Olympia via emergency C-section on September 1.

On August 15, 2023, Serena Williams gave birth to her second daughter, Adira River Ohanian.

In 2024, she posted an Instagram tribute to her second daughter, calling her a “true light.”

She named her daughter a Hebrew name, meaning “Strong One.”

Additionally, Serena shared Olympia’s excitement. What are things like for their family of four?

Is she happy as a mother of two?

Serena Williams posted a follow-up in which she gushed over Olympia’s role as a big sister.

“Olympia is always there for me,” she praised.

“Adira came along … she is so special, so fun, so funny, so loving, so sweet, and so strong!!!” Serena expressed.

“You see, God makes your heart get bigger,” Serena Williams wrote.

She explained: “Because my love for Olympia has not dimmed.”

She had previously wondered about her ability to love with two children.

“My heart simply now is doubled the size,” Serena declared. “And I have a greater capacity to love more!”

Is Serena Williams pregnant?

At present, there are no indications that Serena Williams is pregnant.

However, that could change.

And there is ample precedent that she might not disclose her pregnancy news right away — or at all.

Fans adore her and her two precious daughters. They’d always be happy to see her family grow.

Taylor Frankie Paul Loses Custody of Son, May Be Forced to Pay Back …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Things just keep getting worse for Taylor Frankie Paul.

Just two days after Paul’s season of The Bachelorette was cancelled by ABC, the embattled reality star has been dealt yet another blow.

Multiple outlets have now confirmed that Taylor’s ex, Dakota Mortensen, has been awarded sole physical custody of their 2-year-old daughter.

As of now, the ruling is only temporary, and Taylor will have the chance to plead her case to a judge on April 7.

But until then, she will not be permitted to see her daughter at all.

“No parent time is allowed until the scheduled hearing,” reads a court order obtained by People magazine.

Like every recent setback in Taylor’s life, the custody decision is the result of video that shows Taylor assaulting Dakota and hurling kitchen barstools at him.

To the shock of many viewers, one of the stools apparently struck Taylor’s five-year-old daughter.

“This is called physical abuse,” Mortensen could be heard saying as he filmed the physical altercation.

“Your daughter just got hit in the head by a metal chair,” Mortensen remarked later in the clip.

Needless to say, that’s the sort of thing that’s likely to impact your custody situation.

Paul has two children from a previous relationship, but it doesn’t appear that there’s been any change in that custody arrangement.

And Taylor’s situation might soon get even worse, as she could be forced to return the salary that she received during her time as Bachelorette.

Legal experts tell Page Six that Paul may be required to return some or all of her paycheck after ABC made the last-minute decision to pull the already-filmed season.

The reasoning is fairly straightforward: contracts for reality TV leads often include clauses tied to conduct and the ability of a network to actually air the finished product.

If that’s the case with Frankie’s contract — which it almost certainly is — the network could potentially demand repayment, or even pursue additional damages tied to the cost of production.

“When working with a public person for any project, companies almost always include a morality clause in the contract,” attorney Ashlee Difuntorum of Kinsella Holley Iser Kump Steinsapir LLP tells Page Sic.

And the costs for something like a full season of The Bachelorette are not small.

As previously reported, ABC had already spent millions producing and promoting the season before pulling it from the schedule, leaving the network with little opportunity to recoup its investment.

And that could mean more trouble for the hard-luck Mormon Wife.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
