“They say things like, ‘You’re going to miss your window.’ I’m like, ‘Please, relax. You might feel this way, but I don’t. I promise you I don’t.’ “I’ll probably get married when I’m 50”. Although Venus has no child of her own, she is a loving aunt to her younger sister’s adorable daughter, Olympia Ohanian, who Serena shares with her husband, Alexis Ohanian.
