Spending the next 6 weeks in solitude. Being a wife. Being a mom. Cooking. Cleaning. Spring cleaning. Face mask. Makeup tutorials. I’ll let you know how it goes…. stay safe everyone. This is serious. ??

Fast forward to the present day, Serena Williams says she’s becoming anxious and angry at times.

In fact she became frustrated with her two-year-old daughter Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. She says,

I wanted to take a minute and talk about my experience with corona. It started out with me feeling like, ‘Oh, it can’t really affect me.’ Then suddenly Indian Wells was canceled and I was like, ‘Oh, okay … that’s weird, but I have a little time off and I’ll enjoy that time off. That one cancelation led to another and led to another and then led to all this anxiety that I’m feeling. Now I’ve been social distancing for actually a really long time — two weeks now. But every little thing makes me really crazy.

She continues,

And by anxiety I mean I’m just like I’m on edge anytime anyone sneezes around me or coughs  – I get crazy. And I don’t hang out with anyone so when I say anyone I mean my daughter. She coughed and I got angry. I gave her a side-eye. I gave her that angry Serena. And then I got sad. I was like, ‘Is she okay? Is there something wrong with my daughter. Is there anything I can do. And I just don’t know what to do. So instead of being relaxed I’m really under a ton of stress. I never expected to relax but it is what it is. We get through this, we have to.
