Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. did not look really happy when her mother dragged her over the catwalk in New York on Tuesday. A bit frightened, the two-year-old put her head on the shoulder of tennis icon Serena Williams as the applause broke over both of them.
Williams presented her new fashion collection at Fashion Week and had apparently found that a bit of family flair could not hurt the business. In addition to husband Alexis Ohanian but also a lot of celebrities were the honor.

The Duchess of Sussex in the match Serena Williams against Bianca Andreescu at the US Open
Recently, Williams had made headlines with her friendship with the Duchess of Sussex. Among other things, the wife of Prince Harry had been criticized for having traveled to the US Open without husband and child to cheer Williams. When she surprisingly lost to Canadian Bianca Andreescu, Meghan was advised to stay away from the matches in the future because she was bringing bad luck to her friend.
Williams was annoyed. "She could not be a better friend for me, in good and bad moments - she's always there," said the tennis player after her match at Wimbledon in July at a press conference. The Duchess of Sussex had stated in the past that both women had a taste for spicy sauces and fashion, but also their "belief in high expectations and ambition."
