Alexis Ohanian never fails to demonstrate both wit and deep affection for Serena Williams, his wife. While being one of Reddit’s co-founders and an influential figure within tech circles, Ohanian gladly assumes the role of Serena’s most avid supporter; recently responding humorously and strategically when media portrayals were broadcasted shows off both these characteristics as well. His response showed both supportiveness as an avid supporter as well as clever comebacks – something Noam Burch never managed.
Ohanian was quick to respond when an ESPN user on X criticized their title of the story as being misleading by emphasizing his significant professional achievements, while downplaying Serena Williams as being his wife’s significant benefactor. Ohanian quickly dismissed such arguments with some humor: remarking how being labeled simply as Serena’s husband or noting roles such as Reddit co-founder or Angel City FC founding control owner might not garner as much media coverage – titles which didn’t even begin until 2020 (though his involvement began back when Reddit first launched as co-founder before taking a step back). Meanwhile in 2020 Ohanian entered sports by becoming co-owner of Angel City FC National Women’s Soccer League team; yet none of these titles seems to generate as much buzz when mentioned together with Serena Williams or any of her accomplishments seeming associated with Serena!
In 2021, Ohanian himself retweeted a post where he was identified chiefly as “Serena Williams’ husband.” This led to a conversation where he expressed contentment with being recognized in relation to his wife and daughter, even humorously noting that despite any future personal financial success, those familial connections would remain most people’s association with him.
Ohanian’s Playful Self-Description at the Paris Olympics
Ohanian is known to put himself into amusing situations through his devotion to his family, leading him into amusing circumstances beyond being just a tech mogul and investor. One such instance occurred at this year’s Paris Olympics: with Serena Williams and their daughter Olympia alongside, Ohanian became an unwitting umbrella holder during an unexpected rain storm – leading an unfortunate commentator to mistake him as such! Rather than take offense at being misidentified with this role – Ohanian simply accepted and made light of this misidentification with humor online by posting pictures embracing and acknowledging support of family even in small ways!
Ohanian has led an extraordinary life filled with professional success and personal happiness – one that shows both publicly and personally how comfortable he is with being known primarily as Serena Williams’ spouse. His actions and interactions show someone who prioritizes family over anything else – no matter the perceived stereotypes from media coverage.
