Here comes the bride! During a press conference after a successful match at the 2017 Australian Open on Tuesday, Serena Williams opened up about her recent celebrity engagement to her now fiancé Alexis Ohanian. According to UsMagazine.com, Williams simply said, “It feels good” when asked about her feelings toward her new upcoming nuptials. As exciting as it is, Williams is making it clear she’s not losing focus, saying, “I really haven’t thought about it too much, because I wasn’t even really gonna think about it until after the tournament.” She continued, “So, I just keep saying, ‘February, I’ll start looking at the bigger picture of my life.’ But right now, I’m just so focused that this is all I can think about.” The news of the engagement broke on December 29, though the celebrity couple have been dating since the fall of 2015.
