Serena Williams on the Met Gala red carpet

TENNIS champ Serena Williams has dazzled on the red carpet at the Met Gala today just a few short weeks after announcing her first pregnancy.

The 35-year-old showed off her ever-growing baby bump in an emerald green halter-necked dress, accompanied by her fiance, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.

Two weeks ago, Williams announced that she was 20 weeks pregnant with a post on her Snapchat that was later confirmed by her management.

The announcement was met with a mixture of joy and awe from fans — joy that the sporting superstar would be starting a family, and awe because it meant Williams was around eight weeks pregnant when she defeated her sister Venus in the 2017 Australian Open.
