ROME: Tennis superstar Serena Williams posted on Reddit a photo of her engagement ring that made clear her fiance, Reddit co-founder Alex Ohanian, did not skimp in the rock department.
In a post she titled “Engagement shoe game” and submitted to the site’s “Sneakers” and “isaidyes” subreddits, Williams included a photo of her and Ohanian on what appeared to be a street in Rome, the Washington Post reported.
In announcing her engagement on Reddit, Williams had included a poem which indicated that Ohanian had popped the question at a “table” in Rome where they had “met by chance,” and the photo showed the entrance to a restaurant in the background.
It is not possible to make out the details of the ring Williams sported in the photo, but it is apparent that it features a very large diamond.
Earlier in the week, Williams had teased her fans with an Instagram image of a ring with a taco on it instead of a gemstone, poking fun at her fondness for the food item.
The relationship between Williams, 35, and Ohanian, 33, dates to October 2015, when Us Weekly reported on it.
“They met at a lunch,” a source told the magazine at the time.
Williams had previously been romantically linked to more standard celebrity-types — and while Ohanian is a rock star in the Internet-geek world, he is hardly a household name — such as rappers Drake and Common.
