Despite the fact that Serena Williams was the host of the ESPY Awards that took place yesterday night, it was her daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., who was only six years old, who was the one who truly stole the show.
Williams made the event into a cute family affair by walking the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles with her husband, Alexis Ohanian, who is an entrepreneur in the technology industry, and the couple’s eldest daughter, who struck pose after pose alongside her parents. Olympia appeared to be practicing her grin in one of the photographs, while in another she appeared to be looking at the camera with a serious expression on her face while both of her hands were clutched together and she flashed a large smile.
Olympia was dressed appropriately for the event by donning a silver dress with short sleeves that had a flowery pattern, a pair of metallic sandals, and braiding her hair. Her mother wore a strapless black Giorgio Armani gown with a bedazzled peek-a-boo bra underneath that matched the trim of her dress’s train. She looked just as magnificent as she did in the gown. Williams was a blonde stunner with Old Hollywood waves split to the side and a seductive smoky eye. These were the glam features that she wore.
Williams’s opening monologue at the ESPYs was flawless, just like her dress choices. She didn’t miss a beat. During her address, she made a humorous reference to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, who were present at the occasion when the Duke of Sussex was presented with the Pat Tillman Award for Service.
There is a presence of Prince Harry and Meghan. Williams said, “Let’s give it up for them,” before jokingly warning the royal couple that this was “her night” to shine. She continued by saying, “But please Harry and Meghan, try not to breathe too much tonight because this is my night and I don’t want to be overshadowed by the accusations you guys are taking up too much oxygen.” Williams’s statement was followed by a humorous warning to the royal couple.
