Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian are known as one of the power couples in the celebrity world, both possessing a net worth in the nine-figures.
The pair met in Paris ahead of the 2015 French Open, and they were married two years later, in New Orleans. Ohanian is a co-founder of Reddit, which explains why he was staying at the same bougie hotel as Williams when they met.

It’s estimated that 476,000 people are diagnosed and treated for the disease every year in the United States, and pop star Justin Bieber has documented his battle with it in the past.

He was diagnosed back in July, though it came as a surprise given he hadn’t spent much time in tick-prone areas.
However that hasn’t stopped him from battling the disease, turning to healthy eating to do so
