Earlier last week, Serena Williams, the 23-time Grand Slam champion delighted fans by sharing an adorable new video on her Instagram featuring a special moment with her 14-month-old daughter, Adira, on the tennis court.
In the clip, little Adira is seen picking up a tennis ball and gazes at her mom, who encourages her to “put it in here,” pointing to a nearby basket filled with tennis balls.
However, the toddler has her own ideas. She playfully tosses the ball against a fence before wandering over to a white bench.
The star athlete couldn’t help but chuckle, noting, “She was just doing it. Now, we turned on the camera, she don’t want to do it.”

Fans in the comments gushed over the sweet moment, with one user writing, “Omg baby niece is following in mama’s footsteps too just like niecey Olympia did as a baby.” Another person quipped, “Oh she is fit and ready. Niece gonna be like her aunt and mom.”
Serena shares Adira and seven-year-old Olympia with her husband and Reddit co-founder, Alexis Ohanian.
In other news, a “single” Naomi Campbell is confirming that she welcomed her two kids via surrogate, adding that they don’t need a father because like her mother, who was a “single mom and had nothing,” she’s going to “make it work.”
While recently speaking with The Times UK, iconic supermodel Naomi Campbell, 54, confirmed that she welcomed both of her children via gestational carriers.

In her interview, Campbell self-identified as a “single mom,” who has yet to reveal the names of her two babies (a daughter and son) which she welcomed in May 2021 (at 51) and June 2023 (at 53) respectively.
Before her interview with The Times UK, Campbell was previously asked about the conception of her eldest child, as the exact details around her arrival were unknown. Naomi Campbell did, however, clarify that her daughter wasn’t adopted, but made no mention of a surrogate.
Without providing any additional details at the time, Campbell told Vogue, “She wasn’t adopted – she’s my child.” She explained she was saving the rest of the details for her book, which she had yet to begin.
