While Serena tends to engage in fun activities with daughter Olympia, Venus posts costume designs and promotes her apparel store,  Eleven by Venus Williams. The Williams sisters had spent last few months promoting their film, ‘King Richard’.

Post the film’s release, the Williams clan spent a holiday in Bahamas and recently, it appears both the legends got together to spend some time in Florida. Yesterday, Venus posted a twinning picture with Serena Williams.

Few hours ago, the seven-time Grand Slam champion took to her Instagram to post an adorable picture of her posing with niece, Olympia. She wrote, “Two most important jobs, being auntie and big sister @serenawilliams“. 

Venus also posted a picture of her holding Olympia’s hands during their vacation time in Bahamas. “Like niece, like aunt, she’s gonna be as tall as me one day”, wrote the American.

Coming to tennis, both the Williams sisters didn’t complete their 2021 seasons owing to respective injuries.

While Serena played her final tournament of the year at Wimbledon Championships where she was forced to retire from her first-round match against Aliaksandra Sasnovich due to an unfortunate slip, Venus last played at Chicago Women’s Open.
