Serena Williams Shares Important Message About Postpartum Body Positivity With Relatable Post
Serena Williams took to Instagram on Monday to remind fans that "loving yourself is essential."
The tennis icon posted a photo of herself in a white bikini holding her daughter Adira and enjoying a sunny day on a yacht.
In her caption, Williams—who welcomed baby Adira with Alexis Ohanian in August of last year—shared a powerful message about postpartum body positivity and self-love.
She wrote:
"Loving yourself is essential."
"I find that I have to remind myself of that self-love through all different stages in my life."
Williams continued:
"Right now I love that my body is not picture perfect. I love that I smell like milk - that milk sustains @adiraohanian."
"I love getting to know a new version of my body. It is a change, but it’s a change that has been well worth it."
She finished her post:
"So start this week, knowing that you are loved, and that starts with you."
"Ok, now I’m about to go to the gym 🤪"
"Serena."
Fans of the tennis legend thanked Williams for her message promoting body positivity and embracing change.
