Serena Williams Announces Gender of Second Child With Awesome Drone Display

Serena Williams is pregnant with her second child, and the tennis legend announced on Monday what the gender of the child will be.

The 23-time Grand Slam champion and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, are expecting another girl, the couple announced in a YouTube video.

The couple found out in quite a spectacular way as drones spelled out “It’s a...” as the guests waited patiently to see the gender. Then the drones spelled out “girl.”

Williams’s daughter, five-year-old Olympia, was just as excited as her parents when the news became official. The video of Williams and Ohanian telling Olympia she was going to be an older sister went viral back in May as she was extremely excited to have a sibling.

Watch the full announcement here.

Williams “evolved away” from tennis after last September’s U.S. Open. One of the biggest reasons behind her decision was the desire for the couple to grow their family. Williams previously won the 2017 Australian Open while pregnant with Olympia.
