In his new post on Thursday, Ohanian, who tied the knot with Williams in November, wrote next to a picture of his wife and child, \"I can't imagine life without these two.\"

\"This ordeal, as well as the weeks and months after, has made me an even bigger advocate for paid parental leave (not just for my employees--men & women alike--but for all). We're blessed in a lot of ways and I couldn't imagine a new parent going through all of that without all the support, financial security, and flexibility we had,\" he added.

The Reddit co-founder also shared beautiful pictures from his Vogue shoot with his wife.

We clearly don't take enough family portraits. This one's from the honeymoon. @olympiaohanian was not ready for the snap... ?? 2017 was a year to remember for a lot of reasons (good as well as bad) so that they may all serve as motivation, inspiration, and a compass for what we know to be right. These two women are my everything. And the duty I have to them as a husband and a father is the greatest responsibility I'll have in my life; I'm honored to bear it. And I know I'll always find new ways to keep making you, laugh, @serenawilliams. 2018 is going to be a phenomenal year. And may there be many, many more to come. Wherever you are in the world tonight, I hope you're with people you love.

Ohanian also told Vogue earlier this week that he thought Williams' health complications made her first few months of motherhood \"even harder.\"

\"On top of everything she was going through, the feeling of not being able to help made it even harder,\" Ohanian told Vogue of his wife. \"Consider for a moment that your body is one of the greatest things on this planet, and you’re trapped in it.”

In that same interview, Williams joked about her new daughter, \"We're not spending a day apart until she's eighteen.\"
