The video was filmed during a simple family trip to a bookstore. Alexis Ohanian, the Reddit co-founder, tried to guide his daughter Olympia toward the business section. He pointed at magazines on display, including Inc. magazine, which featured his own photo on the cover.
Alexis asked casually if she wanted to look at the business books. Olympia did not hesitate. She replied with a firm and clear, “No.” When her dad tried again, she looked at the cover and said, “Yeah, I know, I see you,” making it clear she was not impressed.

Instead, Olympia pointed at a different magazine. She said she wanted one that featured a Labubu doll. Her response was honest, funny, and very real, exactly why people loved it. The moment showed how kids see their parents simply as mom or dad, not as famous figures.

After Olympia’s sharp response, Alexis turned to his younger daughter Adira, lovingly called Didi. He pointed at the same magazine and asked her about it. This time, the moment went in a totally different direction.
Adira picked up the magazine, looked at it, and happily said, “It’s Papa!” Her sweet reaction made Alexis laugh and clearly softened the moment. The contrast between the two sisters made the video even more special.
Alexis shared the clip on his social media page and wrote, “That firstborn sure keeps ya humble. Love you girls.” The post quickly spread, with fans praising the bond he shares with his daughters.
Many users commented on how refreshing it was to see children who are not affected by fame. One user wrote that the girls see him as “Papa first,” not a public figure. Another said Olympia’s second and louder “No” was the funniest part of the video.
Alexis Ohanian often talks about fatherhood in interviews and on his podcast, Business Dad. He has said his daughters teach him patience, kindness, and how to slow down. On the podcast, he once shared how much he loves random hugs and surprise “I love you” moments from his kids.
Through small and honest moments like this, Alexis Ohanian gives fans a real look into family life with Serena Williams, a life filled with jokes, love, and everyday joy.
