Continued congratulations are in order for Serena Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, as the couple just learned the gender of their second child. As The Shade Room previously reported, the couple is expecting their second child and most recently embarked on a baby moon in June.
Williams initially revealed her pregnancy before attending the Met Gala in May.
Over the weekend, Williams took to her Instagram to alert fans that a video of her and Ohanian’s gender reveal would be published on YouTube. Additionally, Williams invited her Instagram followers to share what they believe is the gender of her and Ohanian’s second child.
“Big reveal coming soon to my YouTube channel. What do you think I’m having? Drop your guess below ⬇️ 💙💖”
On Monday, Williams returned to Instagram to inform her followers that the video finally went live.
“The big REVEAL is now live on YouTube! Did you guess right? 🔗 in bio.”
Once fans headed over to YouTube to watch the vlog, they were greeted by Williams, who shared that she “obviously is team pink but is nervous” because she didn’t have “any contingency plan” if the baby turned out to be a boy.
“I’m very excited. I’m a little nervous. I’m anxious, and Olympia is downstairs — she was ready to go an hour ago.”
As the family arrived at the gender reveal, they were greeted by various family members and friends, including William’s father and sister, Venus. However, as the gender reveal commenced, Ohanian decided to play a prank on Williams and Olympia.
The internet entrepreneur acted like the couple was doing a cake gender reveal. He proceeded to allow Williams and Ohanian to cut a slice. However, they were greeted by the yellow inside of the cake rather than a pink or blue inside.
“She’ll cut into this cake, probably be disappointed, and hopefully appreciate my troll,” Ohanian explained jokingly. “There’s a reveal after the reveal.”
When the real gender reveal commenced, Ohanian directed guests to look at the sky for a magnificent light show. Check out the moment below!
