The tennis superstar and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, shared an adorable video of their 5-year-old finding out she’s going to be a big sister.
“Olympia does not know right now that I am pregnant,” Williams, 41, said in the clip, which was posted to her YouTube channel Tuesday.
“But she did call me fat and then she got really stressed out,” she joked. “She was like, ‘Mommy, you’re fat.’ I try not to take it personal ’cause I’m, like, super into fitness, but I’m like, ‘Um, am I?.’”
The expectant parents sat Olympia down the day of the 2023 Met Gala, before Williams excitedly revealed the news to the world.
