He wrote that Williams had gone through a major surgery and her survival was the top priority
“Days after our baby girl was born, I kissed my wife goodbye before surgery and neither of us knew if she would be coming back.
“We just wanted her to survive—10 months later, she’s in the #Wimbledon final.
“@serenawilliams will be holding a trophy again soon—she’s got the greatest one waiting at home for her. Our family knows she’ll win many more trophies, too.
She’s just getting started. And I couldn’t be more proud,” wrote Ohanian.
