12/29 Wedding bells are ringing for Serena Williams! The tennis great has announced that she is engaged to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, 33. Fittingly, she broke the news in a poem – on Reddit. “I came home. A little late. Someone had a bag packed for me. And a carriage waited. Destination: Rome,” Williams, 35, wrote on her verified Reddit account. “To escort me to my very own ‘charming.’ Back to where our stars first collided. And now it was full circle. At the same table we first met by chance.” She continued: “But by choice. Down on knee. He said 4 words. And I said yes.” Ohanian shared the Reddit announcement on Facebook simply writing, “She said yes.” He also commented on Williams’ Reddit post, writing, “And you made me the happiest man on the planet.” The engagement comes as a surprise to many – Williams and Ohanian have kept their love private. The two reportedly began dating in 2015. Source: People.com
Interesting this is on here I like dude though. Met him at a bitcoin conference two years ago nice guy
BW might be starting to understand why BM who get rich and famous choose mates from the whole pool and not just black women. Once they reach a certain level, they're probably like "okay -- now I get it". It's probably hard to find real love at that level & and even harder if you're narrowing your choices by "race." Congrats to Serena & Ohanian. To be honest, I was expecting her to go the queen latifa route.
Doubt it will last she's gonna get bored with a dude who can't out match her physically or he's gonna hate it. Certain norms exist for a reason
You must not know her well... Exteriorly and professionally, yes she appears physically-based, but she is internally very feminine and girly-girl. She has always sought her Knight and has been hurt in love often. I think she is content with him. Naturally, we can only speculate. Bet I'm right tho.
Yeah ... Don't get me wrong -- I wish them the best like any other celeb couple. But they don't quite "look" right personality-wise. She looks like she could kick his ass readily. Maybe he likes that, but women tend not to. They also don't look like they mix in the same circles either (and I'm not talking ethnicity). Will she be embraced in "tech nerd" circles? Will she be even interested? (Not saying that's his world... Just going by the fact that he's a tech founder...) Once the novelty wears off it could get complicated. So there's your analysis from the love doctor, medulla. :^) But anyway, good for them. I hope they make it. Wish them better luck than I've had!
Yeah that was my impression as well. Then again who knows? I see the guy out and about in BK often (like 5 times this year). He's part of that BK hipster crowd with dudes who wear funny mustaches from the 20s and girls who think it's fun to dress up like that. Opposites may attract I just don't really them last.
Not sure why this is here, but good for them. I hope it lasts longer than most marriages in the entertainment industry.
THe groom's net worth = $5 million. The bride's net worth = $150 million. Interesting. I wish them the best but at first glance they seem like a mismatched couple. However Serena has a history of dating high profile celeb dudes like Common and Drake, then also hooks up with random dudes you wouldn't expect.
I mean, congrats I guess, but why post it on this site? Has nothing to do with theme at all besides the races involved. If you're gonna post this might as well post about Ray J marrying a BW or Margot Robbie marrying a WM too.
I'm happy for her. Sadly, I knew the hateration was coming and is it ever going full blast on social media. I hope they're able to ignore the negative people and their comments
Serena absolutely loves this dude. Bet he's strapped on the low in the bedroom.lolol Enough high profile brothas have had ample opportunity to lock this chick down and passed, so I can't even begin to hate on her because her fiancee isn't a Black man.
