Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian shares valuable parenting advice he received from Barack Obama
In an interview with E! News, Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian recalled that he received parenting advice from former US President Barack Obama on the importance of being a good role model for his daughter.
"The man you are to your wife is man that your daughter is going to see and come to expect. So, remember every time you're with your wife, you are role modeling that behavior not just for your daughter but for whoever she's going to get to know in her later life," Ohanian recalled Obama saying.
Ohanian also discussed his relationship with the 23-time Grand Slam winner and how she impacts him.
"Having someone as special as Serena [Williams] as a partner is a consistent reminder of self-improvement. I knew I have found someone I was going to spend the rest of my life with because she was someone who I knew I would never outgrow," he said.
He added that having a child with Serena Williams was a "cheat code" for growing and improving as a person.
"Here was something where I got to spend the rest of my life just trying to get better. Obviously, having a child with her is a cheat code, because you really understand the opportunity you have to speak all of that into someone who you want nothing more than the best for," Ohanian said.
