Alexis Ohanian discloses an argument with Serena Williams regarding their daughter Olympia’s weekly allowance

Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian argued over their daughter’s weekly allowance. The business tycoon hilariously disclosed how the negotiations took place with Williams playing as a lawyer for their 7-year-old daughter

Speaking on the Spolitics podcast with Jemele Hill, Ohanian revealed that he had prepared a contract to decide his daughter’s weekly allowance. The 41-year-old further added that Williams led the negotiation for her daughter and acted as Olympia’s ‘counsel’.

For Olympia, she gets $7 a week; she has her chores. I probably got like $1-2 – I gotta ask my dad – for all my chores. And then when I first proposed, Serena was like, ‘that’s not enough. She’s playing both sides. Serena was her (Olympia’s) lawyer in the negotiation. But I drew up a contract, we negotiated it; her mom was her counsel which was really frustrating but it’s okay,” Ohanian added.
