Congratulations are in order for Serena Williams.
The tennis superstar announced her engagement to Reddit co-founder, Alexis Ohanian in the most fitting way possible earlier today: by posting a poem on Reddit.

Williams wrote 15 sweet lines about the romantic proposal after Ohanian surprised her with a trip to Rome, where they first met.
Williams then linked to this Reddit post from her new fiance where he said she had made him "the happiest man on the planet":
The pair have been dating since October last year, but have kept their romance under wraps aside from sharing a few snaps on Instagram — including this picture taken at a onesie party in November.
They haven't set a date yet but Redditors will no doubt be the first to know.
