She has faced many questions about whether she would raise her daughter to play tennis, to which she answered saying she has already hired a coach for her daughter. She also posts many pictures of her and her daughter on the tennis court with rackets.

The couple don’t celebrate Olympia’s birthday owing to Serena’s faith. “We don’t do it because we are Jehovah’s Witnesses,” Serena explained at a press conference in 2017.
