Tennis superstar Serena Williams has shared the heartwarming moment when she revealed her pregnancy to her daughter.
On Tuesday (May 23), Williams posted a YouTube video that shows five-year-old Olympia learning she's going to be a big sister, per 7News. Prior to the recording, Williams said her daughter didn't know about her pregnancy, but the five-year-old did notice that her mom was getting "fat."
“Olympia does not know right now that I am pregnant, but she did call me fat and then she got really, like, stressed out,” Williams said in the video.“She was like ‘Mummy, you’re fat.'"
“I tried not to take it personal, ‘cause I’m, like, super into fitness, but I’m, like, ‘Uhh, am I?’" she continued.
In the video, Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, were sitting on the couch with Olympia when they broke the exciting news.
“Remember how you’ve been praying for a little sister or brother?” Williams asked Olympia. “Well, we went to the doctor, and it turns out I’m not getting fat. But I have a baby in my belly.”
“What, are you kidding me?” Olympia said as her face lit up with excitement.
“You’re going to be a big sister,” Ohanian and Williams both replied.
Olympia hugged her mom, jumped off the couch, and screamed with joy as Williams unveiled her baby bump.
Williams publicly announced her pregnancy on the Met Gala red carpet earlier this month.
She told Lala Anthony: “There’s three of us here.”
“I’m feeling good now," the tennis star said. "I can breathe. I can stop hiding.”
