Williams' post was met with plenty of support from fans.

\"Well done on sharing the reality of postpartum... not just the glamourized Instagram version,\" one person commented.

Another chimed in, writing, \"The problem is the skirt! How dare that skirt disrespect the derrière! Keep the body. Get a new skirt.\"

Others shared how relatable Williams' post was, and how much they appreciated her honesty.

Williams and her husband Alexis Ohanian announced they were expecting again just prior to the 2023 Met Gala.

Williams later revealed the birth of her daughter Adira River Ohanian in a TikTok video that included Ohanian and the couple's eldest daughter Olympia, which she captioned, \"Welcome my beautiful angel.\"
