Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian revealed he recently underwent surgery to remove ‘suspicious nodules’ in his thyroid that were likely to become cancerous.
The 41-year-old Reddit co-founder shared the news on Instagram this Thanksgiving, posting a hospital photo alongside adorable snapshots of 7-year-old daughter Olympia and 15-month daughter Adira, whom he shares with the tennis superstar.
‘After tracking some suspicious nodules on my thyroid for the last 4 years, I recently had half of it surgically removed,’ Ohanian explained.
While he joked about missing his usual lifting routine for two weeks, Ohanian shared an optimistic update.
‘The worst part, to be honest, has been not being able to lift for 2 weeks. But big fella will be back at it next week. Took my girls to Disney World this week, so life is
He ended his post with a reminder to other men: ‘To my fellow dads — make those doctor’s appointments. Especially if y’all are dads. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.’
In July, Ohanian says he has received a diagnosis of Lyme disease, which came as a bit of a shock to him.
He explained his health situation in a series of posts on X/Twitter Tuesday, saying that doctors told him about the diagnosis after he underwent multiple medical procedures.
‘Doing a full battery of health scans, tests, etc, and found out I have lyme disease,’ said the tech entrepreneur, who is father to two children with the tennis icon. ‘Wild. No symptoms, thankfully, but gonna treat.’
Ohanian explained some of the intricate details behind his diagnosis: ‘Good cholesterol is too low. Bad cholesterol is just OK. Gotta work on that. On the plus-side: 822 ng/dL total + 162 ng/dL free testosterone.’
Ohanian said that while he has a family history linked to the ailment, he was caught off-guard by the diagnosis since he did not fall into the group that is typically exposed to the condition geographically.
