Serena Williams Opens Up About Motherhood: ‘It’s Not as Glamorous as You Might Imagine’

Serena Williams is speaking candidly about her experiences as a mother! The tennis legend, aged 42, shared a lighthearted TikTоk video on Wednesday, offering a glimpse into her real-life parenting moments. The clip began with Williams striking a pose in the elegant black sequin gown with puff sleeves that she had recently worn to the 2023 CFDA Awards. However, the tone shifted as the camera transitioned to an image of her expressing a relatable moment for parents everywhere: pumping ƅгеɑst milk while letting out a deep sigh.

Accompanying the video, Williams wrote in her caption, “What my life is really like… It’s not as glamorous as you think,” shedding light on the reality behind the glitz and glam. Just earlier this month, Williams, who shares daughters Olympia, aged 6, and three-month-old Adira with her tech entrepreneur husband, Alexis Ohanian, shared that Olympia is adjusting well to her role as an older sister to Adira. Williams mentioned to Entertainment Tonight at the CFDA Awards that Olympia adores her new sibling, referring to Adira as her “little sis.” Despite initial worries about expanding her love to another child, Williams expressed that things have worked out beautifully.
