I Don’t Know What To Do With A Baby – Serena Williams

Published

on

Serena Williams

Serena has talked about how surprised she was to find out that she’s pregnant, barely a week before the beginning of the Australian Open in January this year, in a telling interview with contributing editor Buzz Bissinger.
According to her, she relented and allowed her friend Jessica Steindorff, who suspected it was not merely her hormones acting up, buy her a pregnancy kit.

She said;

Pregnant Serena

‘I’ll take it just because (a) to prove you wrong and (b) because it’s fun, whatever. It’s like a joke. Why not?’
After taking the test, she forgot about it, thinking it’s impossible that it could be positive. When she finally checked the results, she says she ‘did a double take and my heart dropped. Like literally it dropped.’
Her first thought:

‘Oh my God, this can’t be—I’ve got to play a tournament. How am I going to play the Australian Open? I had planned on winning Wimbledon (her third straight) this year.’
To further convince her of the reality, Jessica purchased five more test kits; all proved positive. After discovering she was pregnant, Serena called her boyfriend Ohanian and, without providing a reason, told him to fly to Melbourne earlier than previously planned.

DailyMail reports that Ohanian, thinking it was likely health-related, immediately got a flight out of San Francisco. When Serena saw him, she wordlessly handed him a paper bag containing the six positive pregnancy tests: Ohanian was as shocked as she had been.

Now, a little more than six months pregnant, she is facing the reality that she is indeed having a baby with her soon-to-be husband.

‘It just doesn’t seem real. I don’t know why. Am I having a baby?’ she says. Williams tells Bissinger that, as of May, she hadn’t made any preparations:

‘I don’t know what to do with a baby. ‘I have nothing … I’ve done absolutely nothing for the baby room.’

Meanwhile, Bissinger writes that Ohanian is ‘earnestly preparing and already has a tip jar he puts money into whenever he uses profanity so he won’t utter it around the baby.’

The couple first met at the Cavalieri Hotel in Rome in May 2015 where, after Ohanian sat at the table beside hers, Serena pretended to know about Reddit, and he withheld the fact that he had ‘never watched a tennis match on television or in real life’.He’s looking forward to the marriage; Williams, on the other hand, tells Bissinger (with tongue in cheek), ‘I’m trying to enjoy the little freedom I have left.’

Their first date saw the ultra-romantic pair roam the streets of Paris for six hours while Serena was in town for the French Open. Ohanian proposed to Serena in December 2016 at virtually the same spot where he had first met her.

On Ohanian’s proposal at the Cavalieri, for which he had asked her to fly to Italy under the guise of a spontaneous trip, Serena says,

‘I knew it was coming. I was like, “Serena, you’re 35, you’re ready. This is what you want.”‘
Ohanian says he knew he wanted to marry Serena because she was helping him become the best version of himself: ‘I felt like a door had been opened to a person who made me want to be my best self,’ he says. ‘I find myself just wanting to be better by simply being around her because of the standard she holds.’

Beverly Naya: Why I Almost Quit Acting | Fab.ng

Nollywood actress Beverly Naya recently talked to media personality Chude Jideonwo about a tough time in her career. She said that all the negativity and bullying online got to her mental health so much that she considered quitting acting altogether. Naya said she felt like the online bullies were unfairly targeting her.

She said,

“There was this particular blog that literally kept coming for me and always had the most negative things to say about everything that I was in and it felt like a personal attack.”

The actress admitted that the constant online attacks really got to her and even made her think about leaving acting altogether. “I felt like I was being attacked again, like, ‘Why am I always being singled out?’ So it really got to me and it damaged my self-esteem and made me doubt myself and I didn’t want to continue in this industry.”

She recounted a particularly hurtful post that has stayed with her ever since. Narrating how the words broke her down, she said,

“There was a particular post that I can never forget, they said ‘Nollywood can we stop trying to make Beverly Naya happen.’ When I saw it, I was crushed and I cried my eyes out because of that. I was angry because I felt like I worked hard. At the time I wasn’t perfect, I’m still not perfect but I was willing and I was pushing myself and I really felt like I did my best and I was trashed and singled out and irrelevant. I was borderline depressed during that period.”

Tyla Teases Potential Collaboration With Blackpink’s Lisa | Fab.ng

Music fans! South African singing sensation Tyla is brewing up a potential collaboration with K-pop megastar Lisa from BLACKPINK! The buzz started when Tyla shared a social media clip of them hanging out in the studio, with Lisa listening to Tyla’s debut album, “TYLA.” The caption hinted at a future team-up, saying, “Sweetest gorllll… Definitely a Lisa x Tyla collab down the line.”

In a recent interview with Reuters promoting her new album, Tyla confirmed the exciting news. She revealed they’ve been in talks about creating a song together. “We’ve been speaking about making a song together, so yes, for sure,” Tyla enthusiastically told Reuters. This potential collaboration has music lovers buzzing. With Tyla’s soulful vocals and Lisa’s energetic rapping, the combination promises an explosive track that could dominate the charts. Both artists are known for pushing boundaries and experimenting with new sounds, making this a collaboration with serious potential.

While there’s no official confirmation on the song’s release date or details, Tyla’s confirmation is enough to set the music world on fire. Fans are eagerly waiting for any further developments and can’t wait to see what these two musical powerhouses create together.

Lisa struck out on her own in February, launching her label “LLOYD” after her solo contract with YG Entertainment ended. Lisa and her bandmates have renewed their group contract with YG.

This wouldn’t be Tyla’s first high-profile collaboration. Her debut album already features tracks with American rapper Travis Scott and Nigerian singer Tems. Teaming up with the globally renowned Lisa from BLACKPINK would be a massive step for Tyla, further solidifying her position as a rising star on the international music scene.

With both artists at the top of their game, a Tyla and Lisa collaboration has the potential to be a global chart-topper.
