Despite her illustrious tennis career, Serena Williams has expressed that being a mother to her daughters brings her more joy than anything else.
In August 2023, Williams welcomed her second daughter, Adira River, after retiring from professional tennis at the 2022 US Open. Her emotional affair was attended by her and husband Alexis Ohanian’s first child, daughter Olympia.
Despite being busy with her family life, the former World No. 1 has managed to pursue her passion for beauty and fashion through the launch of her own makeup brand, WYN Beauty.
In a feature for American beauty magazine Byrdie, Serena Williams revealed her new venture and discussed the different sources of inspiration that led to its creation. She shared that becoming a mother to Olympia had shifted her perspective on beauty, as they bonded over experimenting with new makeup looks together.
“The way I talk to myself about beauty has certainly changed throughout my life, and it will continue to evolve. Motherhood has allowed me to look at beauty through the eyes of my daughter, Olympia,”Serena Williams said.
“We’re always experimenting with makeup together, and I think about how these moments will be part of both of our beauty journeys,”she added.
The American also recognized her daughters as her primary sources of joy, stating that the satisfaction of volunteering at Olympia’s school far surpassed the feeling of winning a Wimbledon title.
“My kids. I can’t say that a Wimbledon trophy holds a candle to volunteering at my kid’s school,”she said.
Serena Williams’ Message to Her Daughters: The Importance of Authenticity and Self-Acceptance
In her interview with Byrdie magazine, Serena Williams emphasized the importance of her daughters Olympia and Adira learning a valuable lesson from her tennis career – the significance of remaining true to oneself.
“I want my daughters to look at my career and learn that being authentic to themselves is really the most important thing. You don’t have to be the best as long as you do your best,”she said.
The 42-year-old also expressed her desire to motivate her daughters by pursuing her diverse interests, emphasizing that they should not feel restricted to a single career path.
“I also hope my daughters see how many different passions I have—from tennis to beauty—and learn that they can lead dynamic careers and lives across their many interests,”she added.
Serena Williams additionally discussed the impact her mother, Oracene Price, had on her beauty journey, reminiscing about her first “beauty memory”of her mother wearing red lipstick.
