Tennis legend Serena Williams announced Thursday she is engaged to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. She broke the news in poetic style on her verified Reddit account.
However, Williams, 35, and Ohanian, 33, did not reveal a wedding date in the postings, listed under the Reddit tag ‘isaidyes’.
“I came home A little late, Someone had a bag packed for me, And a carriage awaited, Destination: Rome, To escort me to my very own “charming” Back to where our stars first collided, And now it was full circle At the same table we first met by chance, This time he made it not by chance But by choice, Down on one knee He said 4 words And r/isaidyes,” Williams posted on her account.
A reply from his verified account said: “And you made me the happiest man on the planet.”
The WTA Tour, which Williams has dominated for over a decade, posted a photo of Williams and Ohanian on Twitter with a message of congratulations.
Serena Williams, world number one for 186 consecutive weeks before she was dethroned by Angelique Kerber in September, is the greatest female tennis player of all times.
