Serena Williams’ daughter already has one foot inside the Olympic world!
On Sunday, Oct. 15, the retired tennis pro’s husband and Reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian, 41, shared a carousel of photos of the couple’s daughter Olympia, 7, on Instagram as she met Olympic gymnast Simone Biles at the Gold Over America Tour.
Olympia was all smiles in the pics as she sported pink pants and a matching pink sweater as she stood with Biles, who wore a gold leotard and placed an arm around Olympia.
The young gymnastics fan also posed for a photo with Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles, with the two holding up peace signs as they smiled for the picture. A repost of Biles’ Instagram Stories was also included, which had a photo of Olympia, Williams and Ohanian alongside Biles, Chiles and others.

Serena Williams’ Daughter Adira Now Has Her Own Instagram Just Like Big Sister Olympia
“I had to take S & Jr to see @simonebiles’ Gold Over America Tour. Packed house. Awesome night. Don’t miss it if they’re coming to your town. 🥇🥇🥇,” Ohanian wrote in his caption.
“And thank you Simone and @jordanchiles for absolutely making Olympia’s MONTH 🥞 I bought all the merch I could and even tried making this morning’s pancake look like Olympia in one of her new leotards – sorry babygirl, photorealism is hard 😆😆 and the batter was too runny today.”
Williams and Ohanian are parents to daughters Olympia and Adira, 14 months.
Speaking to Glamour for a recent article, the mom of two opened up about her decision to have a cesarean section when welcoming daughter Adira. Although she said she wouldn’t miss giving birth naturally, she admitted that a part of her was sad to not go through the experience again.
Of giving birth naturally, Williams said, “Looking back, I’ll never have that moment again. For whatever weird reason, that kind of makes me a little sad, but that’s probably a party of one.”
“This time I went in with a plan. I like to say I put my best effort out there, and this was no different,” she said of welcoming Adira. “I literally thought about it as a Grand Slam: ‘How can I succeed?’ ”
Speaking to PEOPLE in May, Ohanian shared that he’s excited to see his younger daughter start to get her footing, noting it’s “fun because she’s getting more mobile.”
“She’s able to have a lot more fun with her sister in terms of playing. You can already see the interactions between them. It’s a big age gap, and Olympia has a little bit of that maternal spirit. She’s like, ‘This is my baby,’ and it’s great to see them together,” Ohanian shared.
“They play and sort wrestle and all that. We’re very lucky because Adira’s got a great personality and Olympia does too, plus she’s so excited to be a big sis. So seeing the two of them interact with each other has been a special kind of fun. Adira’s getting more mobile and more vocal, and it’s only going to get even more fun.”
He joked, “I guess at some point they’re going to fight over things, but for now, let me live in bliss.”
