Serena Williams may hold the title of the greatest of all time (GOAT) in her family and the tennis world at large, but her 6-year-old daughter, Olympia, is unquestionably the queen. Just ask Olympia’s father, Alexis Ohanian, who treated his daughter like royalty during a recent beach vacation, as evidenced by the photos showing Olympia ruling their household.
In a new Instagram post, the Reddit co-founder shared a caption quoting Olympia: “‘Papa, uppy!!’” Ohanian explained that Olympia didn’t want her feet, adorned in a pretty pink-and-green floral dress, to get sandy after dipping them in the ocean. So, naturally, he scooped her up and carried her back to the golf cart instead of allowing her to walk.
The accompanying pictures capture this diva moment perfectly. Initially seen joyfully running toward the ocean, Olympia quickly shifts gears, opting for a royal carriage ride back, courtesy of her doting dad. Ohanian’s smile in the last photo reflects his pride and joy as a father, even if carrying Olympia back to the cart in the heat might be tiring. Fans of the adorable duo couldn’t help but comment on the sweet post, noting Ohanian’s beaming smile while holding Olympia and praising their bond.
Ohanian has previously opened up about family life, emphasizing his commitment to being an engaged and present father to Olympia and their daughter Adira, born in August. He prioritizes quality time with Olympia, enjoying daddy-daughter adventures and dates while ensuring Serena has the freedom to pursue her interests and career. Ohanian’s dedication to fatherhood is evident, and it’s clear he’s excelling in the role.
