Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, recently shared his plans to gift their daughters, Olympia and Adira River, the newly launched Venus Williams ‘Role Model’ Barbie doll. The newly announced dolls were released to celebrate Barbie’s 65th anniversary and encourage young girls to stay in sports.

On Wednesday, Alexis Ohanian responded to a post by the ‘Tennis Letter’ on X (formerly Twitter) about the Venus Williams Barbie. The post celebrated Venus Williams being honored with her own Barbie doll, which is part of the new ‘Role Model’ lineup that celebrates female sporting icons. The former World No.1 was all smiles in a photo taken on a tennis court and she donned a white tennis dress while holding the Barbie doll.

Ohanian expressed his excitement about the Venus Williams doll and replied by stating his intention to acquire one doll each for his daughters, Olympia and Adira River. Ohanian also added that he would get some of the dolls graded.

“Let’s gooooo sis I’ll get the girls one each and get a few graded,” Alexis Ohanian wrote on X.

Other sports stars being honored with role model Barbie dolls are Olympic champion boxer Estelle Mossely, paratriathlete Susana Rodriguez, swimmer Federica Pellegrini, gymnast Alexa Moreno, Olympic gymnast Rebeca Andrade, and soccer star Mary Fowler.

Venus Williams, who has been battling injuries off the court, has participated in two tournaments this season. Williams was eliminated by Nao Hibino at the Indian Wells Masters in her opening match. At the Miami Open, she was ousted in the first round by Diana Shnaider.
