Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, is making the most of his paternity leave and inspiring fans along the way!
The billionaire, who has been a vocal supporter of fathers taking time off to spend time at home with their newborns, repeated his message again in a recent social media post. She shared an image featuring her and her two girls — Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. who is five, and newborn Adira River Ohanian — spending quality time together.
Men’s Champion Alexis Ohanian Takes Paternity Leave To Bond With Their New Baby
Although we are still far from the end of the year, Alexis has been named “Father of the Year” by everyone. He has earned the respect of many when he took to Instagram to release a single photo of himself sitting on a sofa with his newborn daughter lying on his shoulder.
Olympia sat next to her father, resting a hand on his left shoulder as they watched an episode of “Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir” on television. Underneath the sweet photo, the father of two wrote, “#ParternityLeave.”
Unable to resist the beauty in the intimate snap, many people double tapped on it and others took to the comments section to express their love and appreciation for the Reddit co-founder.

While this person claimed, “There’s nothing more magical than being a father to a daughter,” another wished her husband “had paternity leave! Ugh, I’d love for him to spend our first few weeks as parents with us but it’s wishful thinking,” concluded with “Congratulations on the new addition.” The raw emotion in the comment not only touched people’s hearts, it also made Alexis react. He stated:
“He should. I’ve been fighting for it for all Americans since Olympia was born, but we’ve only gotten it for federal workers (so far). All the companies I’ve built have had it and I’ve tried to lead by example as a leader in those orgs to show that it’s okay for men to take advantage of it – we can show up for our families AND still be high performers at work.”
Amidst the emotional atmosphere, a third netizen said, “Thank you for normalizing paternity leave is necessary. It’s good for new mothers and for babies too.” The tech investor acknowledges that appreciative sentiment by loving it.
The last time the Williams-Ohanian household delighted fans with their family dynamic was last month when Serena uploaded a clip of her baby shower. As reported by The Blast, in the six-minute footage shared by the retired tennis star, she is seen getting ready for the event with her loved ones.
As the party progresses, moving from day to night, Alexis is seen in a private clip revealing that she has a trick up her sleeve in the form of a celebration cake. In his words:
“This cake is the basis of the gender reveal idea as I can make it. Inside, it is yellow. I did this because I wanted to trick him and Olympia into thinking that this was a Jelly Bean reveal. He’ll cut this cake, probably be disappointed, and hopefully appreciate my trolling, but we’ll see.”

After the 40-year-old finishes his monologue, the video switches to his wife cutting the cake, revealing only the plain yellow filling inside. Serena’s response to the joke was to playfully act as if she wanted to smear the cut off on her face.
Serena Williams’ Baby Adira Announcement
Following the arrival of their second child together, Serena and Alexis revealed the name and date of delivery in separate Instagram posts. Leading the charge, Alexis posted a portrait of the family of four, writing in the accompanying caption:
“Welcome, Adira River Ohanian. I am grateful to report our home is united with love: a happy & healthy newborn girl and a happy & healthy mama. Feeling grateful. @serenawilliams now you have given me another incomparable gift — you are GMOAT. Thank you to all the amazing medical staff who took care of my wife & our daughter ? I will never forget the moment I introduced @olympiaohanian to her little sister.”
Likewise, his wife shared a photo of the same family, along with the baby’s name in the caption. In the photo, the proud mother and Olympia are wearing a pink dress, while the father of the family is wearing a black polo shirt.
Celebrities such as Nene Leakes, Viola Davis, Porsha Williams Guobadia, Naomi Campbell, Kim Fields and Ciara immediately left congratulatory comments in the section to celebrate the good news.
