Serena Williams Explains What Happened When She Found Out She Was Pregnant

Serena Williams looks stunning in this photo shoot with Vogue magazine.

The 35-year-old pregnant tennis star explained to the publication that her pregnancy was unexpected.

“But once I found out, something happened that surprised me,” Serena said. “I became really calm. I thought, You have to win, but you’re allowed to lose, because you have something to look forward to.”

“Two weeks after we found out, I played the Australian Open. I told Alexis it has to be a girl because there I was playing in 100-degree weather, and that baby never gave me any trouble. Ride or die. Women are tough that way,” Serena added.

FYI: Serena is wearing a white custom Atelier Versace dress in one photo and a Ralph Lauren dress in the other.
