Annoying Mom in Your Face’ – Serena Williams Finds Her Post-Tennis Joy by Embracing Dream Role of Supporting Daughter Olympia

Serena Williams has lived the dreams of many tennis players. GOAT status, an inspiring journey, and an emotional retirement. But the tennis star also loves dancing. Be it a quick few moves on the court, or her dance-off against her sister, Venus, Serena loves grooving and the new update confirms this!

Now, the former World No. 1 recently underwent an operation for a lump that was diagnosed in May this year. Upon further investigation, doctors discovered it to be a branchial cyst. While the doctors initially suggested that the lump needs no removal, with time, it grew at an alarming rate – increasing the risk of an infection. With those concerns now settled and Williams back on her feet, healthy and recovered, she decided to rejoin her daughter for a fun recital.

Taking to her official TikTok handle, the 23-time Grand Slam champion shared how she volunteered to be her daughter Olympia’s partner-in-crime in her dancing classes. She said, “Olympia has a recital so they asked for volunteers. Obviously, I wanna volunteer. So I am now in dance class and I have to go to my dance routine and get ready for the stage. Actually, I did it last year so I kinda remember the routine like I’m that mom that’s gonna be there every year. Annoying mom in your face, living her dreams of being a dancer – that’s me.”

She captioned her video, “I need a life- I volunteered for Olympia’s dance class… and now I am going to be in her dance show. She hast to be tired of me lol.”

Interesting Fact: Even as an active tennis player, Serena Williams would dance to keep herself healthy. “It’s a fun way to get a workout in instead of going to the gym and jumping on the treadmill for 30 minutes. I really enjoy that,” she said in 2016.
American superstar or better yet, a ‘Supermom’ in recent years has changed her life drastically. While she caters to her children’s needs and frequently airs exciting moments with them, the 43-year-old also manages several ventures. This extreme change in her life’s dynamic prompted her to address the schedule that she now adheres to.

In an interview with ‘TODAY’s’ Hoda & Jenna, the American star revealed that she feels more occupied as a mother than she was as a tennis player during her active years on the tour. She drew the curtain on her illustrious career at the US Open in 2022. “As a mom, I’m actually way more active than what I was during tennis. Obviously, tennis, I was playing Wimbledon and stuff. But, as a mom, I’m gone all day,” Serena said.
After marking her appearance at the Flushing Meadows as a spectator this year, Serena has almost been a no-show at tour-level events elsewhere. Likely taken up with family responsibilities, fans eagerly await the American sensation to bless the community with another sighting – voicing unreplicable insights into the sport.
