Tennis legend Serena Williams has shown that she maintains close relationships with her family.

The athlete posted a video on her Instagram page featuring her with her mom.

In the video, Serena is about to pose for a photo with her mom, but her husband, Alexis Ohanian, unexpectedly bursts into the frame, causing the women to smile and burst into laughter.

Let’s recall that the couple met 10 years ago, in 2015. As they themselves said, their meeting happened completely by chance but over time grew into something truly serious. Alexis and Serena announced their engagement in December 2016 and got married in 2017.

By the time of their wedding, they had already welcomed their daughter Olympia, who was born in September 2017. Their second child, also a daughter, Adira, was born in August 2023.

It’s worth noting that Serena recently starred with her daughters in an advertisement for the children’s clothing brand Janie and Jack, for which she created her own collection.

Let’s add that Alexis Ohanian is a businessman, one of the co-founders of the popular website Reddit, which combines features of a social network and a forum.

Serena Williams recently posted a wholesome Instagram video where she is seen teaching her daughter, Alexis, how to cook her comforting gumbo recipe.

But it seems that her fans could only focus on one thing, via thousands of comments.

In the middle of cooking, tennis sensation Williams is seen feeding her two dogs pieces of sausage while prepping it for the gumbo. This innocent moment has caused quite a stir.

“She was good til she fed the dog, then it’s a nope,” one comment reads, with another replying, “We don’t touch our food after touching the dog unless hands are washed.”

However, some side with Williams, questioning “who doesn’t give their dog a snack while cooking?”

“As soon as I crack an egg, open a package of deli cheese or start preparing chicken, my dog, Chloe, appears at my heels in the kitchen,” senior editor Megan Ginsberg shares. “She knows if she hangs around and waits patiently, she’ll get a bite. I love having her company in the kitchen and don’t see anything wrong with giving her a couple little scraps, but that’s where I draw the line; she doesn’t get fed in the dining room or get food from our plates.”

“My dog Pepper loves to sit near the kitchen and watch her dad cook,” our associate social media editor Allison Little says. “She knows that begging won’t get her her way, but she’s got one of those faces that you just can’t resist! She’s a pro at fetch, so tossing some raw veggies in her direction is a fun distraction, but she knows very well that she’ll never get a bite of the finished product from our plates, so she doesn’t even bother.”

Many of Williams’ fans were most concerned about the star’s hand being in contact with her dogs’ mouths while she’s prepping her food without washing her hands afterwards. But she is seen dropping or throwing the food to her pups with minimal to no contact, which is exactly what our editors abide by.

“Levi Browndog is my adorable little sous chef, and crunchy veggies like carrots and cucumber are some of his favorite foods,” news, trending and updates editor Abigail Abesamis Demarest says. “He’ll sit patiently while I peel and chop away. When I’m finished, I’ll toss some end pieces to him, and he catches them in his mouth. My hands stay nice and clean and he does a trick and gets a snack! Win win.”

Is Feeding Your Dogs Scraps While You Cook Safe?

We even asked a chef and expert for their opinion on the matter. Shawn Matijevich, lead chef-instructor of Online Culinary Arts & Food Operations at the Institute of Culinary Education weighs in with his thoughts with an overall message of “leave Serena alone!”

“Here is something that people don’t really get about food safety,” he explains. “In food safety, we worry about three different types of contamination: physical (dog drool, dog hair, band-aids), chemical (household cleaners, poisons) and biological (bacteria, virus, parasite). Two of the three could apply here. I think the physical things that could be coming off the dogs and onto her hands could be considered physical contamination if you stretch it that far—it’s very minimal though. If dog drool really gives you the ick, then fine, I get it. But most dog owners I know let their dogs kiss them on the face.”

Whether it’s “gross” or not is one thing, but is feeding your dog in the kitchen a safe choice? Here’s what Matijevich says.

“Biological contaminants, bacteria, viruses and parasites are all present in our household pets in their saliva, skin and bodily fluids,” he shares. “Here in this video, however, Serena is boiling everything that could have possibly come into contact with the dogs. Boiling kills all three of the biological contaminants I talked about, rendering this gumbo worry-free as far as food safety goes.”

When feeding your dogs “human” food, just be sure to give them scraps of things that won’t upset their tummies.

“I definitely give my dogs, Oreo and Banjo, scraps while I cook,” Carolyn Malcoun, our associate editorial director says. “Maybe they get the fatty pieces of meat after it’s been cooked, or a mushy blueberry—Banjo’s favorite.”

The Bottom Line

Serena Williams feeds her dogs scraps in the kitchen, and that is OK. In fact, our editors do it too, and a food safety expert is on our side. Just be sure to wash your hands after coming in contact with your pooch.

“If you are just grossed out by it, I can see that point of view, but there is no real danger here to food safety,” Matijevich concludes.

When it comes to showing off for a camera, leave it to Serena Williams to have a smashing good look.

Williams recently took part in a new ad campaign for Janie & Jack, a children’s clothing brand. Since this involves children, why not have Williams’ daughters come along for the fun?

Olympia and Adira Williams, Serena’s daughters, showed off some children’s clothes as they took part in the ad. All three of them wore matching dresses at one point. It looks like they all had a good time sharing camera time.

What did Serena Williams think of the photo shoot? “Having my girls in the campaign was only right because this collection is all about family,” Williams said in an interview with People. “Olympia had so much fun expressing her style, and Adira, even at her young age, loved being part of it in her own way. They were naturals.”

This marked the first time that Serena had been involved in an ad campaign with her two daughters. She looked upon it as a new experience for all of them. As a mom, Serena was very proud of how her daughters showed up and worked together.

Don’t be too surprised if all three pop up again for another ad campaign. Serena Williams will have plenty of other opportunities to share camera time with her kids.

“My philosophy is eat to live. Don’t live to eat,” Serena once said while talking to Women’s Health during a Nintendo gaming event.

And she was spot on, wasn’t she? Reaching GOAT status in any sport isn’t just about relentless training and mastering your craft, a disciplined diet plays just as much of a role. But even the most dedicated athletes have their moments of indulgence with food! Despite being known for her strict food regimen, Serena recently shared a hilariously relatable car ride moment that any true foodie would appreciate. So, what went down?

We’ve all heard stories of Serena Williams’ legendary food cravings. Who could forget when she had such an intense craving for Italian food that her husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, whisked her off to Venice just for a plate of fresh pasta? Well, that was back in 2018, a mere 18 months after their fateful first meeting at a hotel in Rome. With their ten-month-old daughter, Alexis Olympia, in tow, the couple jetted off to Italy all because the former Olympic Gold winner needed the real deal. Alexis even shared a picture of their adventure, humorously captioning it, “She wanted Italian for dinner, so…” with the geotag proudly marking ‘Venezia, Italia. Now that’s commitment!

And let’s not forget her pregnancy cravings in 2017. Back then, it was Alexis once again on duty, making a surprise grocery run to Publix to satisfy Serena’s very specific veggie cravings. “I was told there would be cravings. I was not told they would be these,” Ohanian quipped while filming himself in the vegetable aisle. “Zucchini, asparagus and…what’s this one called again? Artichoke. There we go. Really? These are her cravings. It’s amazing.” Turns out Serena was all about the ‘greens’ during her first pregnancy.

Fast forward to today, almost 3 years into her retirement from tennis, and Serena just showed us how she handles cravings solo. A few hours ago, the 23-time GS champion took to IG to share a series of hilarious stories. The first? A ‘contemplative shot’ of her staring out of her car window. What about the second? A suspenseful caption: “3 minutes later…” while building up the anticipation. And then, the grand reveal: Serena Williams, caught mid-bite, devouring a burger, with the camera perfectly capturing her priceless expression. Even off the court, she’s still serving up gold, this time as a pure foodie!

While Serena may indulge in cravings on the go, her shift to a plant-based diet has been a game-changer since 2011. She’s been redefining nutrition, keeping her body fueled beyond the court. In a campaign for JUST Egg, she shared her journey and the powerful reason behind embracing a cleaner, plant-powered lifestyle.

“I started trying [plant-based foods] years ago. The reason I started was because my sister, Venus, was diagnosed with Sjögren’s, and when we lived together, she changed her diet. I remember thinking, ‘I can’t bring all this bad food into the house,’ so I changed my diet as well. I realized that I didn’t feel weaker, I didn’t feel like [my body] was missing something, and I actually had a lot of energy,” Serena said.

But that’s not all! Lately, Serena Williams has been quite active on her social media, not just sharing her foodie moments but also reminding us what genuine friendship looks like. Only a few days ago, she gave a shout-out to a very special friend.

Serena Williams and Meghan Markle have shared an unbreakable friendship since 2010, and for friends, Serena never misses a chance to show up. Ahead of the grand premiere of ‘With Love, Meghan’ on March 4, the tennis icon made sure to shower Meghan with love and support, paying a visit to her home and even spending precious moments playing with little Princess Lilibet.

And it didn’t stop there! The former tennis ace then took to her IG stories, proving her unwavering support for Meghan’s Netflix venture. Sharing a clip of her TV screen streaming Two Kids from LA, the third episode of the series, Serena gave her nod to Meghan’s latest project. This 38-minute episode features the Duchess teaming up with “LA-born Korean-American” chef Roy Choi, diving into the rich flavors of Korean cuisine. In a testament to their enduring friendship, Serena publicly acknowledged Meghan in her post, adding a heart emoji as a symbol of their decade-long bond.

Even before the premiere, Serena promoted her friend and expressed love for the Duchess of Sussex: “I’m so excited for you to check out ‘WITH LOVE, MEGHAN,’ now streaming exclusively on Netflix! Join my wonderful friend @meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, as she opens up her world and shares her personal tips for the kitchen, garden, and so much more. It’s a fun and inspiring series that reminds us all how easy it is to bring a little beauty into our everyday lives, even when we least expect it. Can’t wait for you to experience it! 💖,” Serena wrote on Instagram.

Serena Williams often gives her fans glimpses of her daily life, whether it’s indulging in her ‘foodie cravings’ or standing by her best friend. However, one can’t help but wonder: Could a surprise comeback on the court for an exhibition match be possible anytime soon?

I don’t have a ton of time to do it often, but I love cooking and it’s just kind of relaxing for me,” is what Serena Williams once said.

After retiring in 2022, one might have expected a quieter life, but not for this dynamic entrepreneur and super mom. With two young daughters, Olympia and Adira, keeping her on her toes, Serena continues to thrive. Whether it’s expanding her beauty brand, WYN Beauty, or enjoying family moments, she is busy as a bee. However, Serena needs some much-needed downtime, and what better way to do that than cooking? Looks like the 23-time grand slam champion has reignited her passion for food, it’s sending her into a frenzy!

If you missed it, on Sunday, Serena shared a glimpse of her hands-on cooking session with her daughter Olympia. In the video, the WTA legend was seen making gumbo and teaching Olympia her recipe. She captioned it: “Bet you didn’t know I love cooking. Here is me teaching @olympiaohanian my gumbo recipe.” This wasn’t just a fun mother-daughter bonding moment; it also showcased a delicious meal.

The fun didn’t stop there! The following day, Serena posted on her Instagram story, moving about in her garden, having a “wild and free day.” She picked off the leaves of a plant and spoke to the camera. What was she looking for? Well, it seems like the WTA legend is onto her next big dish, the ingredients of which are found in her backyard! As she noted, “I am fresh picking some more moringa because I want to cook it. I got a ton of moringa at home but it’s all dry and I actually want to make it fresh because I was reading that you can cook it and eat it like spinach.”

Serena plans to pan-sear the moringa leaves, saying, “I would pan-sear it for just a fresh second or two like a minute, and then eat it.” She even hinted at a possible next reel or social media update from the tennis star! “I will let you know how that turns out,” she said. Serena has been cooking for years, with her favorite dishes including her mother’s chicken and rice. Since adapting to a vegan diet, she also showcases creations like vegan tacos!

With this new recipe, Serena is going all in on her culinary skills, exclaiming, “We’re wild today, wild and crazy!” Meanwhile, fans who know of Alexis’ passion for cooking seem to be taking a dig at him now, and he’s not having any of it!

The co-founder of Reddit and husband of tennis legend Serena Williams, has carved out a niche for himself as a culinary mastermind. Dubbed “Papa Pancakes,” he’s renowned for his whimsical pancake art, which has become a cherished tradition in the Ohanian-Williams household. But when Serena recently shared a video of herself teaching Olympia her gumbo recipe, highlighting their special bond in the kitchen, a fan praised Serena’s multi-talented nature. They wrote, “What can’t you do?? Keep the recipes alive and pass them down so she’ll always know what good seasoned food taste like!”

Seeing the comment, Ohanian couldn’t resist chiming in with a humorous response: “@Shaushauredemption i feel attacked,” he joked, feeling playfully contested as he also enjoys baking cakes and other culinary escapades with Olympia. But the entrepreneur’s culinary exploits are not just about the food; they’re also about family bonding!

On February 10, he fired up his grill to prepare a special meal for his visiting father and stepmother, making the occasion even more meaningful. In a series of videos shared on his X account, he documented the process of preparing his signature party ribs, joking about the Armenian cultural affinity for BBQ: “Every Armenian man wakes up one day at 40 and realizes they’re not grilling/smoking/BBQing enough meat and overnight they transform. These are the rules,” he quipped.

The Williams-Ohanian household is clearly a hub of culinary creativity, with both parents actively involved in cooking adventures. But seems like with Serena taking on cooking again, there might just be a showdown sooner or later.

Angel Reese, the WNBA superstar known for her prowess on the court, has once again captured the attention of fans and fashion enthusiasts alike with her latest stylish ensemble. The 23-year-old forward, who plays for the Rose Club in the Unrivaled league, showcased her impeccable fashion sense at a recent game, turning heads with her chic and sophisticated outfit.

Reese arrived at the game on Monday night in a stunning white top and skirt combination, paired with a matching white hat. The sleek and elegant look was completed with a pair of high-top furry heels and dark shades, adding a touch of glamour to her already impressive fashion repertoire.

Reese proudly displayed her outfit on Instagram, captioning the post with a playful “hello kitten.” The WNBA star’s fashion choices have consistently impressed both on and off the court. Whether she’s attending high-profile events or stepping out for a night on the town, Reese always manages to make a statement.

Her latest outfit is just another example of her ability to blend athleticism with style seamlessly. Reese’s fashion-forward looks have not gone unnoticed by the fashion industry. She has been featured in numerous fashion magazines and has attended prestigious events such as the Met Gala and the CFDA Fashion Awards.

Her unique sense of style and confidence have made her a standout figure in both the sports and fashion worlds. In addition to her fashion endeavors, Reese has been making waves in the basketball world.

She has been a key player for the Rose Club in the Unrivaled league, averaging 13 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game. Her impressive performance on the court has earned her a loyal fan base and the admiration of her peers.

Angel Katherine Reece[1] (born November 4, 1983)[2] is a retired American professional wrestler, better known by the ring name Hailey Hatred. Originally debuting in July 2002, Hatred worked for several years for various promotions in both the United States and Mexico, before moving to Japan in late 2010. In 2011

Hatred made her breakthrough to the top of Japanese joshi puroresu with the JWP Joshi Puroresu promotion, holding the Daily Sports Women’s Tag Team, IMW Hybrid Fighting, JWP Openweight, JWP Tag Team, TLW World Women’s and TLW World Women’s Tag Team Championships simultaneously. During 2012

Hatred began working more regularly for Ice Ribbon and in November 2012 once again held six different titles; the IMW Hybrid Fighting Championship, the International Ribbon Tag Team Championship, the Reina World Tag Team Championship, the Remix Pro Women’s Championship, the TLW World Women’s Championship and the Triangle Ribbon Championship. Reece has been inactive from professional wrestling ever since leaving Japan in August 2015.

Professional wrestling career

United States (2002–2012)

Reece was trained at Heartland Wrestling Association’s (HWA) wrestling school and made her professional wrestling debut in July 2002 under the ring name Bobbi Jablonski.[2] After branching out to other Midwestern independent promotions like Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling, Far North Wrestling, Independent Wrestling Association Mid-South, Midwest Regional Wrestling and Totally Lethal Wrestling, Reece changed her ring name to Hailey Hatred.

Hatred won her first title on June 6, 2004, when she became the inaugural Totally Lethal Wrestling (TLW) World Women’s Champion. Though TLW went out of business later that year, Hatred held the TLW World Women’s Championship for 3,345 days.[5] On October 29, 2004

Hatred took part in the inaugural ChickFight tournament, losing to Nikki Roxx in the first round.[2][6] She has since returned to take part in the ChickFight III, IV and VI tournaments, each time losing her opening match in the tournament.[2] On November 18, 2005, Hatred defeated Mickie Knuckles to win the IWA Mid-South Women’s Championship.

She would lose the title back to Knuckles on February 8, 2006.[8] On May 15, 2009, Hatred defeated Sammi Lane in the finals of a tournament to win the vacant Absolute Intense Wrestling (AIW) Women’s Championship. After a thirteen-month reign, Hatred was stripped of the title on June 27, 2010, when she no-showed a title defense against Jefferson Saint.

On June 6, 2009, Hatred began working for Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU), where she formed the tag team “Havok & Hatred” with Jessicka Havok. In their first WSU match

Hatred and Havok dominated the WSU tag team division for the following months, building up to a title match on October 3, where they retained the title against Angel Orsini and Mercedes Martinez, following interference from their new ally Rain.[12] On November 7

Hatred and Havok faced Orsini and Martinez in a rematch, where any outside interference would result in a one-year suspension from WSU.[12] Hatred and Havok lost the WSU Tag Team Championship, when Orsini pinned Havok for the win.[13] Hatred has not returned to WSU since.

Serena Williams has never been one to follow the rules on or off the court.

In a recent Instagram story, the tennis legend shared an intense workout session, and while her strength was on full display, it was her natural confidence that stole the show. Without a trace of makeup and wearing a cropped top that revealed her midsection, Serena once again proved that she plays by her own rules.

The video captures Serena mid-workout, seemingly using a stair climber, her movements strong and determined. While the exercise itself was impressive, what caught fans’ attention was the way she carried herself unapologetic, confident, and completely in her element. Her belly button, which appeared larger than usual, sparked curiosity among some viewers, a reminder of how the body changes through motherhood. But for Serena, there was no attempt to hide it. She embraced it, as she does with everything in life, with grace and confidence.

In a world where celebrities often appear perfectly polished, Serena’s raw, unfiltered presence was refreshing. She didn’t hide behind filters or layers of makeup. Instead, she reminded her followers that true strength isn’t just about physical power-it’s about self-acceptance. The message was clear: beauty isn’t about perfection, but about owning who you are.

This isn’t the first time Serena has championed self-love. Throughout her career, she has been vocal about embracing her individuality and encouraging others to do the same. Whether dominating a Grand Slam or stepping into the business world as a successful entrepreneur, she has always prioritized authenticity. Her investment philosophy mirrors her personal mantra: believe in yourself, because that’s the greatest investment you can make.

Serena’s approach to life extends beyond tennis. She’s built an empire on resilience, determination, and confidence qualities that shine through in every aspect of her life. Her latest Instagram post was more than just a workout video; it was a statement. A statement that says confidence isn’t about looking a certain way, it’s about feeling powerful in your own skin.

As always, Serena Williams is breaking the mold, proving that true greatness isn’t just about winning titles it’s about inspiring others to be their most authentic selves. And in a world obsessed with perfection, her message is more powerful than ever.

Looks like there’s a new rockstar in the Ohanian-Williams household!

While the world has been long acquainted with little Olympia and her #PapaPancakes shenanigans with her father, with Adira’s arrival, the fun has clearly doubled. But before we get to that…

For the unversed: Born on August 15, 2023, Adira was introduced to the world on social media by her father just days after the birth, in a post that read, “I’m grateful to report our house is teaming with love: a happy & healthy newborn girl and happy & healthy mama. Feeling grateful. @serenawilliams you’ve now given me another incomparable gift — you’re the GMOAT. I’ll never forget the moment I introduced @olympiaohanian to her baby sister.”

Serena Williams Shares New Family Photos with Her Two Girls in 2024 Recap:  'Thanks for All the Memories'

Notably, the couple announced their pregnancy at that year’s Met Gala, with Ohanian later revealing how big sister Olympia was the most excited, “She’s been wanting this. She’s been praying and asking about this for quite some time, so she’s very ready.” While the world was awaiting to get formally introduced to the toddler, the Reddit co-founder finally did that on her first birthday.

“Oh hello there. I know it’s been over a year but I’m just getting to this,” the caption read, with a carousel of photos showing the little girl in her adorable element. Ever since then, the younger daughter of the household has been a staple on her parents’ social media, alongside her sister.

On February 27, though, we got to see another playful side of Adira. On Instagram Stories, her father shared a clip from Adira’s profile where she was hilariously seen covering her Barbie with a blanket to put her to sleep. “I can play with dolls too,” the caption read.

And, as expected, it wasn’t long before her mother jumped in to add an endearing, “Awwww I love you so much”. Notably, this comes weeks after the tennis superstar had shared some fun pictures of the mommy-daughter duo enjoying on the beach at a tropical location. Sharing a string of photos where Adira seemed completely enamored, while dipping her toes in the ocean, the caption read, “My mini mini @adiraohanian wanted to take a dip in the ocean. I could not say no.”

Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian don’t just dominate in their careers—they bring that same energy to parenting. Serena believes in letting kids be kids, embracing their wild side instead of constantly reining them in. But you got to balance, so, Alexis takes a “gentle-ish” approach, talking to his daughter. He even prepped for fatherhood by crowd-sourcing advice on Reddit—like sleeping with a baby blanket, so it smells like him.

They’re also intentional about raising Olympia in a digital world. Serena limits screen time. And Alexis? He’s all about fair play. He’s made it clear that Olympia won’t be chasing a career in sports unless female athletes get paid what they deserve. There’s heart and a whole lot of hustle, and the couple is raising their daughter their way.

It’s time! The newest league founded by WNBA players Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, Unrivaled, is set to debut in 2025. The 3×3 women’s basketball league features six-figure salaries offered to players and has even lured big names like Angel Reese to sign on. But, will it be possible for her to hit the court this soon?

It’s time! The newest league founded by WNBA players Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, Unrivaled, is set to debut in 2025. The 3×3 women’s basketball league features six-figure salaries offered to players and has even lured big names like Angel Reese to sign on. But, will it be possible for her to hit the court this soon?

The collaboration underscores the Chicago Sky forward’s determination to dominate in Unrivaled. Soon she’ll be representing the Rose Basketball Club alongside stars like Chelsea Gray and Kahleah Copper. Despite this, her workout clips have become the center of social media buzz, with some questioning her readiness for the league.

Angel Reese up for a redemption amid online criticism

The internet is never short on opinions, and Reese’s latest training posts were no exception. While fans applauded her hustle, critics were quick to dismiss her efforts. One comment read, 45-minute taping to make 3 shots? She’s got no game.

Averaging a double-double of nearly 13 rebounds and 13.6 points per game, Reese has always been a focal point of criticism. Despite her impressive rebounding skills, she’s often questioned for rebounding her own shots.

Angel Reese 

Angel Reese-type of hoop,” penned a spectator on X. “Missing Angel Reese hoops,” paired with a funny meme added another. The Chicago sky forward’s decision to join Unrivaled isn’t just about basketball; it’s a financial game-changer for her.

She’s got all the hype but no game to back it up. Let’s see if this trainer can make a difference,” added another user. As the league offers salaries far exceeding the WNBA’s average, Reese’s $250,000 salary for the eight-week season is a significant opportunity for her to secure her future.

Beyond the financial perks, Reese views Unrivaled as a stepping stone for skill enhancement. Angel Reese should be worried about her mid-range game when all she does is put back her own rebounds, added another spectator. And they’re right. In her rookie WNBA season, Reese converted approximately 31% of her mid-range shots, indicating room for development in this aspect of her game.

Competing alongside 34 of the WNBA’s top players, she has expressed excitement about learning from the best. “I’m really looking forward to honing my skills and getting better,” she said in an earlier interview.

As Reese prepares to make her mark in Unrivaled, the spotlight—and scrutiny—will only intensify. Her partnership with Alexander signals a serious commitment to her craft, despite the naysayers. Whether she silences critics or fuels more debate, one thing is certain: Reese isn’t backing down.
