Serena Williams Retires at US Open: From Zendaya to Hugh Jackman, All Celebrities Who Came to Say Goodbye

Alexis Ohanian is a man who has achieved enough success to be known worldwide as an individual. But from the moment he married Serena Williams, his identity went from being a co-founder of Reddit to a husband for many media publications. The confident and secure man that he is, Alexis seems fine with being referred to as the husband of one of the biggest athletes of all time.

Ohanian is very active on social media and is known to engage with his followers too. One Twitter user mentioned how media tends to refer to Ohanian as Serena’s husband and Alexis was more than happy to respond with his trademark humor.

“There is only one Serena”

Alexis Ohanian recently pranked his wife Serena Williams along with the rest of the family, including another tennis great Venus, while hosting a gender reveal party. Responding to a tweet by CNN reporting the prank, Ohanian joked by saying,

“What’s the point of being married if you can’t prank your wife (and daughter… and sister-in-law…. and everyone at the reveal party)”.

On the same thread, a user replied calling the media out for referring to Ohanian as Serena Williams’ husband. But rather than taking offense, Alexis responded with humor that one would associate with him. He also said something that is very much true, Williams is not just a former athlete; she’s transcended every industry.
