Serena Williams‘ new Gatorade commercial raised questions when viewers noticed the infant in Serena’s arms is not her daughter Alexis Olympia Ohanian, Jr.
Serena’s rep confirmed the baby in the commercial is not Alexis Jr.
via Hiphollywood.com — In an email sent to AdAge, a spokesperson explained that “While Serena intended to have Olympia make her screen debut as part of this film, her daughter was under the weather and unable to be on set, but the sentiment remains the same.”
Williams didn’t refer to the stand-in baby, but she did share a photo from the commercial with the caption: “There are so many reasons to quit, but even more to keep playing. Even if you don’t go pro, sports can teach you so much. So keep playing.”
