In the video, the tennis legend notes she is "very excited" about their celebration.
"Obviously, I'm team pink," she said. "But I'm a little nervous because I don't have any contingency plan if it turns out to be a boy."
The extravagant reveal
During their gender reveal party, Williams' husband, Alexis Ohanian, presented her with a cake which he said would reveal the gender of their baby once it’s cut.
To Williams’ surprise, the inside was yellow when she cut the cake.
"I'm doing it because I want to troll her and Olympia into thinking that this is the reveal of Jellybean," he shared. "She will cut into this cake, probably be disappointed and hopefully appreciate my troll."

As the couple stepped outside to view the night's sky, a display of lights lit up the sky and read, "GIRL!"
