Serena Williams Shows Off Her Ring on Snapchat After Touchdown in New Zealand

Serena Williams touched down in New Zealand with her new fiance Alexis Ohanian after announcing she is engaged to the bearded Reddit co-founder in a sweet poem.

The couple, who surprised the world with their shock engagement, were seen pushing their luggage out of Auckland airport, with the entrepreneur tailing behind her as local media snapped the tennis star on Friday.

But the 35-year-old had another surprise in store for her fans as she revealed a gold ring on Snapchat; which she was also seen wearing while getting in a post-flight training session later that day at an Auckland tennis club.

The gorgeous superstar athlete posted a short series of snaps featuring the ring as she pranced around a beach in very revealing cutoff denim shorts and a long cardigan.

But the bride-to-be did not comment on her forthcoming nuptials to the press.

According to stuff.co.nz, she answered only a few questions, very briefly saying that it was her sister Venus who encouraged her to come to New Zealand.

‘It was all Venus, so we should just thank Venus when she arrives,’ Serena said.

She added: ‘She told me it was great and that I should come and I always listen to my big sister.

‘It’s always fun to go places you’ve never been and I’m excited to be here.’

Ahead of her arrival in New Zealand she posted a video to Facebook telling her fans there that she was excited to touchdown in the country.

Williams revealed in her poem that she came home to find her bags packed and ready to go for the surprise trip that Ohanian had planned for them.

She also included a graphic that showed her dressed in her tennis gear and floating on air as Ohanian presented her with a large diamond.

Williams, who is notoriously private about her personal life, has never spoken about her relationship with Ohanian in the press. She is seen above Friday during a practice session in New Zealand

Williams and Ohanian were first spotted together at dinner in San Francisco back in November of 2015 thanks to surveillance video that was later released by the restaurant. She is seen above during the practice session on Friday.
