Alexis knew very little about tennis and Williams wasn’t a Reddit user at that time. However, as they say, pairs are made in heaven, the couple also met by chance.

One year later, after getting to know each other, Alexis brought Serena back to the place where they first met to propose her. Subsequently, a month later, the couple discovered they were pregnant. Serena also recalled the story and revealed how she got attracted to Ohanian at their first encounter.
