Back in 2022, Serena Williams told Insider, “I don’t know if I’m a good mom, and I don’t know if my method works, but I’m very hands-on with my daughter, and it was the same with our parents.” That honesty echoed like a quiet anthem; now, the melody has matured 3 years later. Serena remains fiercely present, raising Olympia and Adira with passion, purpose, and playful brilliance. Whether they’re twinning boldly, dueling with lightsabers, or stealing the spotlight with bedtime giggles, she’s unapologetically all-in. And after a recent Beyoncé concert unleashed hidden talents in both her and Olympia, one truth rings loud: motherhood isn’t just one rhythm, it’s Serena’s full-blown symphony.
On Saturday, June 21, Serena Williams, forever the queen of comebacks and GS glory, lit up her IG Stories with a flurry of moments from Beyoncé’s dazzling show at Paris’ iconic Stade de France. The 23-time Major singles champion wasn’t just there as a fan; she was in it, belting out Beyoncé’s 2011 anthem “Love on Top” with fierce joy.
The 43-year-old legend let her voice soar in sync with the pop powerhouse, proving once again that she doesn’t just dominate on court, she owns every room she walks into. Meanwhile, her husband, Reddit co-founder and entrepreneur Alexis Ohanian, brought the backstage vibe to the internet, posting his awe on X (formerly Twitter): “Didn’t know Beyoncé was gonna FLY tonight. Damn!”, a nod to the singer’s jaw-dropping horseshoe prop performance suspended mid-air.

Kicking off in April with sold-out shows at SoFi and MetLife Stadiums, the Cowboy Carter Tour conquered Europe and is returning to the U.S. in July, with a stop at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium. But as the spotlight dims on one diva, another artist has caught Serena’s eye, a Grammy-winning force whose viral dance challenge is now turning social feeds into rhythm battlegrounds. The game has shifted, the beat is different, and Serena’s world keeps spinning to a new, unstoppable groove.
Recently, one IG fan page lit up timelines by sharing a glimpse of Serena Williams’ TikTok, and it’s pure gold. The tennis icon, away from the grand slams and into the rhythm of motherhood, was seen soaking up joyful moments with daughters Olympia and Adira. The standout clip? Williams is grooving with her girls to the “Wall To Wall” Challenge, a throwback to Chris Brown’s 2007 hit that’s found new life on TikTok. With over 815,000 video creations, the track is exploding again, and Serena’s right in the heart of the fun, proving her legacy now moves to a new beat.

This summer of fun!” he wrote, and fans answered in kind, racking up over 2 million likes in no time.

And of course, Olympia, Serena’s ever-faithful 7-year-old sidekick, was right there, dancing, laughing, living. From victory to defeat, and even now in retirement, she’s been more than just a daughter; she’s Serena’s unwavering supporter, biggest fan, and closest confidante.
Serena Williams shares heartfelt support received from Olympia
Olympia was born in 2017, when Serena Williams was still dominating courts and rewriting tennis history. Then, about a year after the icon had stepped away from her career, Adira came into the world. Two daughters, two different timelines, but one unshakable force: Serena’s unwavering devotion.

Reflecting on motherhood, Serena once shared, “Olympia is always there for me. Then Adira came along … she is so special, so fun, so funny, so loving, so sweet and so strong!!! You see, God makes your heart get bigger. Because my love for Olympia has not dimmed. My heart simply now is doubled the size and I have a greater capacity to love more!”
Olympia’s bond with her mother has always been pure and powerful. During the turbulent 2018 US Open final, where Serena faced both a fierce Naomi Osaka and the weight of a controversial umpiring decision, emotions ran high. As the dust settled after the 6-2, 6-4 loss, Serena found solace not in headlines, but in her daughter’s arms. “I got in the car, and Olympia was in the car,” Serena recalled. “It was so weird. She started giving me kisses; she never gives me kisses. She doesn’t even know to give kisses, and she just grabbed me.”
In that tender moment, the roles flipped, and Olympia, then just a toddler, became the anchor during the storm. That day, love whispered louder than defeat.
