Proud of his role! Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, loves his family — and doesn’t care if Drake thinks that makes him a “groupie.” On Friday, November 4, the 36-year-old rapper released his new album, Her Loss, in which he calls out 39-year-old Ohanian in his song “Middle of the Ocean.”“Sidebar, Serena, your husband a groupie,” Drake raps on the track. “He claim we don’t got a problem but, no, boo, it is like you comin’ for sushi.”After the record dropped, Ohanian took to social media to share a list of his personal accompaniments and gush over how “life changed” when he “became a husband + a papa” to Williams, 41, and their 5-year-old daughter, Olympia.“It’s made me 100x better as a man and a businessman,” he wrote via Twitter. “In @serenawilliams I found a partner I knew I would never outgrow, who would always motivate me to be Greater.”After stating his priorities, the New York native seemingly clapped back at Drake’s lyrics, by writing, “The reason I stay winning is because I’m relentless about being the absolute best at whatever I do — including being the best groupie for my wife & daughter.”The tennis player, for her part, replied to her beau’s sweet tweet with a bunch of smiling heart emojis.
Prior to tying the knot with Ohanian, Williams was linked to the Degrassi alum. The two first sparked romance speculation when Drake tweeted, “@serenawilliams I cannot wait to put it on you and make you sweat…….during our match this weekend” in 2011.
In 2015, the musician was spotted cheering for the athlete at Wimbledon. A few months later, the pair were reportedly seen kissing in a back room of an upscale Italian eatery, per photos obtained by TMZ at the time.
