Wow! We didn't see that coming.

Serena Williams is engaged to Alexis Ohanian!

The tennis champ took to her verified Reddit page to break the happy news with a romantic sonnet and very cute illustration of her fiance on one knee.In the beautiful poem she wrote, the 35-year-old revealed that the proposal happened in Rome- where the couple met and Alexis
popped the question at the exact same table where they first talked.  Isn’t that romantic?

“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

And of course, the lucky man also took to Reddit to respond to his lady love’s writing;

“And you made me the happiest man on the planet.”

He also shared the news on Facebook. (Aww, so sweet)

Serena Williams started dating Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit in 2015 after her summer fling with Drake. E! notes that sources close to the couple reveal this is the happiest she has been with anyone.


“They’ve never seen Serena this happy before with a man. It sounds cheesy, but it was love at first sight.”

“They laugh non-stop and that really fuels their relationship,”

They are on the same page in life and are excited to start something great with each other.”
