"Thanks to all the amazing medical staff who took care of my wife & our daughter 🙏 I'll never forget the moment I introduced @olympiaohanian to her baby sister," he added. 

He finished his caption with a quote that is seemingly an ode to his daughter's middle name: "Your peace would have been like a river, your well-being like the waves of the sea."

In February, Williams opened up to CBS Mornings about stepping away from tennis and expanding her family. 

She said her daughter was eager to become a big sister.

"The other day she's like, 'Everyone has a brother or a sister but me.' And I'm like, 'Olympia, I'm working on it. Mommy worked a little too long in tennis, so it's takin' a little longer than expected,'" Williams recalled.
