Serena Williams’ Husband Marks a Special Milestone for Daughter Adira Amid Chelsea FC Women’s Victory
“We’re very lucky because Adira’s got a great personality, and Olympia does too. Watching them interact has been a special kind of fun,” said Alexis Ohanian last year, just three months before Adira’s first birthday. But beyond sisterly bonding with Serena’s elder daughter Olympia, Adira has brought immense joy and prosperity to the Ohanian family.
Adira, the daughter of tennis superstar Serena Williams and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, turned one on September 1st, 2020. As the family celebrated this special milestone, Ohanian took to social media to share his pride and love for his daughter.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Ohanian shared a series of adorable photos of Adira and wrote, “One year ago today, @serenawilliams and I had the most amazing, unforgettable, and life-changing experience of bringing our daughter into this world. I’m so grateful for these past 12 months, watching her grow, learn, and become the most amazing little human.”
He went on to express his love and admiration for Adira, saying, “I’m also grateful for the countless ways she’s brought joy and prosperity into our lives. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for this little powerhouse.”
Adira’s first year has been nothing short of eventful, with her parents constantly sharing adorable moments of her on social media. From attending her first tennis match to cheering on her mom at the US Open, Adira has already experienced so much in her young life.
But beyond being the daughter of two successful and influential parents, Adira has a personality of her own. She has captured the hearts of fans with her infectious smile and playful nature. And as she grows older, we can only imagine the amazing things she will accomplish.
Adira’s birth also marked a special moment for the Ohanian family, as she became the first child of color to be born into the Reddit co-founder’s family. Ohanian has been vocal about the importance of representation and inclusivity, and Adira’s birth has only strengthened his commitment to these values.
In an interview with Vogue, Ohanian shared, “I’m very aware of the impact of my daughter being Black and how that’s going to be on her. It’s something that I’m constantly thinking about and talking about with my wife, and we’re just trying to make sure that we’re doing the best that we can to set her up for success as best we can.”
Adira’s birth also brought the Ohanian family closer to Serena’s sister Venus Williams, who has been a loving and supportive aunt to her niece. In an interview with People, Venus shared, “I’m so excited to be an aunt. I’m already an aunt to my sister’s dog, so now it’s just a human baby. It’s really exciting.”
As Adira celebrates her first birthday, the Ohanian family has even more reason to celebrate as Chelsea FC Women’s team, which is owned by Ohanian, secured a 3-1 victory over Manchester City in the Women’s Super League. This marks the team’s first win of the season, and Ohanian couldn’t be prouder.
He took to Twitter to share his excitement, writing, “Big win for @ChelseaFCW today! Congrats to the team on their first win of the season. #KTBFFH.”
Adira’s first year has been filled with love, joy, and success, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this little powerhouse. As she continues to bring happiness and prosperity to the Ohanian family, she will undoubtedly inspire others to do the same.
Happy first birthday, Adira! May your life be filled with love, laughter, and endless possibilities.
