Serena Williams has shared a photo of herself cuddling with her little daughter Adira River while admitting that she is not feeling well today. The retired tennis star, who shares two daughters with husband Alexis Ohanian, apparently wanted to show her millions of fans that even if they have a hard day, they should appreciate the finer things in life.
Serena, 42, definitely finds comfort in her 3-month-old baby. On Tuesday, Williams showed off how she held her little girl over her chest in a polka-dot blanket. It makes me so happy, the famous athlete captioned her post.
The post of the 23-time Grand Slam champion comes hours after she shared another post on social media x (formerly Twitter) in which she tells her followers that she is not feeling well today.
She wrote: “I’m not feeling well today. And it’s normal to be out of order. No one is well every day. If you are not feeling well today, I am with you, ” she wrote, adding: “there is always tomorrow, right?’
In addition to Adir, Williams also shares a 6-year-old daughter, Olympia, with Alexis, 40.
Earlier this month, the professional athlete spoke candidly about her life as a mother, sharing a lighthearted TikTok clip of her real-life parenting experience that began with her posing in a black sequin dress with puff sleeves that she wore at the recent CFDA 2023 Awards.
In a moment that mothers around the world can identify with, the camera switches to a picture of Serena expressing breast milk and uttering a deep sigh.
What is my life really like?.. It’s not as glamorous as you think, the mother-of-two wrote at the time. In November, Williams announced that Olympia was successfully sailing by being Adira’s big sister.
She loves the baby, Williams told Entertainment Tonight at the CFDA Awards. According to the news agency, Williams said that Olympia prayed for a sister, but revealed that she herself was a little worried before Adira was born.
I thought to myself, I don’t know if I can ever love someone as much as Olympia, Williams said. “I was really nervous. But I have a feeling that everything worked out.
