Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian recently shared an adorable picture with their daughter Olympia at Athlos NYC. Williams and Ohanian got married in 2017 and welcomed Olympia the same year. They had a second child in 2023.
The Reddit co-founder is a staunch advocate of women’s sports. He has made his support for women in sports clear on many occasions such as when sporting a jacket that says ‘Invest in women’s sports’ and while tweeting about women’s sports. He had also invested in the NWSL franchise, Angel City FC.
More recently, he founded Athlos NYC, a women-only track event. Six events were conducted, with the winner taking home $60,000 prize money. The high-profile event saw Olympians such as Gabby Thomas, Faith Kipyegon, Marileidy Paulino, Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith, and many others compete for the ultimate prize.
Ohanian shared many updates throughout the night, with one being an adorable picture of him with his daughter Olympia.
“See it, be it, little girl. @athlos NY 2024 📸 Olympia’s grandpa,” Ohanian captioned the post.
Recently, he also shared that Olympia requested to race on the track at the end of the event.
“She runs NY. Olympia had such a good time she asked to run the track at the end and I had to oblige. We gifted dozens of NY track youth tickets to this event because these kids deserve to be part of history – if they can see a professional path, everything changes,” he wrote.
