Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian shares a special bond with his elder daughter Olympia. Whether it is making pancakes for her or playing golf together, Ohanian’s dedication to his daughters leaves no room for complaints. Ohanian enjoys a fun relationship with Olympia, filled with playful teasing and humorous banter. In a recent social media post, he shared one such moment. Although he tried to justify his actions, his statement ultimately showcased the child inside him.

After gaining worldwide recognition for his Papa Pancakes tradition, the Reddit co-founder previously introduced his elder daughter, Olympia, to the classic Tetris game. After purchasing the handheld console, Ohanian shared a picture of it on X and wrote, “Here we go! Let’s see what @olympiaohanian thinks…” His words reflected his curiosity about whether Olympia would enjoy the vintage video game. However, following his latest update, it seems his elder daughter loved her father’s thoughtful gesture.

On X, Ohanian posted a picture of his daughter’s console featuring a Pokémon game. Sharing the image, he wrote, “Just helping my kid level up her Pokémon while she sleeps… not doing this for me at all.” While he claimed he was only helping Olympia in her game, it seemed more like an excuse forhim to indulge with Olympia’s Tetris console himself. Well, that’s nostalgia.

Now, it is no secret that Ohanian’s eldest daughter enjoys video games and she is quite good at them. In a conversation with Jemele J. Hill, Ohanian revealed that Olympia sometimes outperforms him in video games. “Better than her at video games. Not that’s much of a skill, but I’ll take it. Game of H.O.R.S.E? Yeah, her jump shot is terrible,” he said.

Interstingly, Olympia’s knack for video gaming doesn’t come only from her father. Her legendary mother, Serena Williams, also has a fondness for video games. In an interview with People Magazine, the WTA legend shared her love for gaming and revealed that it’s a key part of her relaxation routine.
