Tennis superstar Serena Williams announced some exciting news on Monday night as she attended the Met Gala in New York. The 23-time Grand Slam winner revealed that she is pregnant with her second child, telling reporters on the red carpet that there were «three of us» in attendance. Williams arrived at the event with her husband, Alexis Ohanian, and the couple's first child, daughter Olympia, who was born in October 2017.

Last year, Williams wrote in Vogue magazine that she wanted to focus on growing her family and step away from tennis. The Met Gala is an annual invitation-only fundraiser for the Costume Institute, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Williams was thrilled to attend alongside her husband and daughter, as well as close friend and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

Fellow tennis champion Roger Federer was also in attendance, co-chairing the event alongside Wintour and other celebrities including Dua Lipa, Penélope Cruz, Michaela Coel, and model Karlie Kloss, who also confirmed her second pregnancy at the event. Congratulations to Williams and her growing family on this exciting news!
