Serena Williams recently had a safe childbirth, and the family revealed the news collectively on Serena’s social media. The reveal was simple, cute, and sudden and took everyone off guard as people were least expecting Adira River Ohanian, the youngest daughter of ReRe, to make an appearance.

Venus and Serena have always set the bar high, whether in tennis or as sisters. At the gender reveal, Queen Vee’s expression of curiosity and shock after Alexis Ohanian pulled a prank was priceless. She became the center of attraction, just like the prank. But the excited aunt could not join other well-wishers on social media following Adira’s birth due to her commitments.

The 43-year-old is pushing her limits like never before. Venus is working hard to make a memorable run at her home Slam. She is missing out on the initial days of her niece’s birth, but Slams don’t wait for her. So Venus will choose to spend a long time with her niece after she was done with the US Open.

The seven-times Grand Slam champion limped throughout the first round of the Wimbledon Championships but did not walk out. She preferred to walk away like a queen than to hand over the match to her opponent. Adira’s aunt is occupied with her issues, as injuries are plaguing her. Despite all that, Venus was active in all the parties Serena organized while participating in the tournaments.

The five times Wimbledon champion pulled out of the game due to a knee injury.

The kind of multitasking Venus is now handling barely gives her time to pen a heartfelt note to her niece.

For now, the American champion has only one goal: to achieve her best at the US Open.
