Ohanian, 34, also joined his future wife for her Vanity Fair shoot, cradling her baby bump from behind in one sweet photo.

Williams, who found out she was expecting right before the Australian Open in January 2017, was shocked by the baby news after taking six pregnancy tests. They were all positive.

The athlete “did a double take and my heart dropped,” she told Vanity Fair. “Like literally it dropped.”

Newly pregnant, she competed in — and won! — the Australian Open anyway at seven to eight weeks pregnant once her doctor signed off.

While she is clearly embracing her pregnancy curves, Williams revealed she hasn’t done much preparation for the baby’s fall arrival yet.

“I don’t know what to do with a baby,” the athlete told the magazine back in May. “I have nothing … I’ve done absolutely nothing for the baby room.”

Williams accidentally announced her pregnancy on Snapchat when she posted a swimsuit selfie flaunting her bump at 20 weeks in April 2017.

“I was like, ‘Serena, you’re 35, you’re ready,” she told the magazine of her proposal. “‘This is what you want.’”
