It’s another girl for tennis legend, Serena Williams.

The 23-time Grand Slam champion and her husband Alexis Ohanian made the revelation in grand style, doing it in front of family and friends at a lavish outdoor party.

Williams revealed she was pregnant with her second child back in May, surprising fans when she showed off her baby bump at the Met Gala for the first time.

Serena shares video of reveal

The 41-year-old shared a video of the festivities on her Youtube channel on Monday.

The six-minute clip starts with Williams revealing to the camera that the party she was documenting was a 'baby shower slash gender reveal'.

Williams admitted before she found out she was having another girl that she was ‘Team Pink’. She added that she doesn’t have any contingency plan if her second child turns out to be a boy.

The video then showed the exterior of her home. A balloon entrance can be seen, which read ‘Our next great adventure.’

The former world No. 1 is seen getting out of her vehicle with a white top that showed her growing baby bump. She also wore a pink and white striped skirt, making it clear that she wants her next child to be a girl.

Alexis wore a black baseball cap, a vintage X-Men t-shirt, and black camo shorts as he accompanied his wife to the event.

The clip showed Serena posing with her dad Richard Williams and sister Venus Williams at the event.

Drone show used for reveal

Alexis instructed Serena later in the party to cut the cake to find out if they’re having a boy or a girl.

Unbeknownst to the sports icon, Alexis was just trolling her as he made the inside of the cake yellow, and not blue or pink.

He had a bigger surprise for his wife, bringing out a high-tech drone show to reveal their child’s gender, per Today.

Serena and her daughter Olympia celebrated when they finally learned that there will be another girl in the family.
