The Black community haven't been quite pleased with tennis champion Serena Williams and her sister VenusWilliams for marring White men, instead of sticking with Black brothers.
But the tennis veteran and mother of one has now revealed her reason for marrying Alexis Ohanian.
She said in an interview with The New York Times that she married Alexis because love “has no color”.
She also added that she wanted to be with someone who treated her nice and Alexis was that someone.
Serena’s private life is soon be made public with the premiere on Wednesday of a five-part series on HBO called “Being Serena”.
The series follows up on her pregnancy, her life-threatening postnatal problems and her comeback.
In the documentary series, Serena expressed her surprise that she and Ohanian “are such a good fit.”
She said: “I’m an athlete. He’s a business guy. I’m black. He’s white. We are totally opposite. I think we just complement each other. And i think we understand hard work in different ways.”
