Serena Williams engaged to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian

Serena said yes!

Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, 33, asked the tennis star to marry him this week and she agreed, the couple announced on the social message board site Thursday.

The 35-year-old US Open champion detailed the proposal on Reddit with a poem.

“I came home / A little late / Someone had a bag packed for me /And a carriage awaited /Destination: Rome /To escort me to my very own “charming” / Back to where our stars first collided / And now it was full circle / At the same table we first met by chance / This time he made it not by chance /But by choice / Down on one knee / He said 4 words And r/isaidyes,” she wrote, using the company’s trademark style of categorizing posts.

The superstar athlete and techie first started dating in October 2015, and have rarely discussed their relationship publicly.
