Slaying on the red carpet of the Met Gala 2023, Serena Williams made a big surprise announcement for her fans. Momma Smash revealed she was expecting her second child with husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. Serena already has a daughter with Ohanian named Alexis Olympia, who was born in September 2017. As congratulations were in order, her good friend Lewis Hamilton sent his best wishes as well.

The Met Gala 2023 turned out to be a platform for announcing pregnancies, it seems. Before Williams, supermodel Karlie Kloss flaunted her baby bump as well. Coincidentally, this is Karlie’s second child as well.
