Serena Williams Shares Daughter's Brutally Honest Response to Fan's Hair Compliment
Serena Williams' daughter, as do most kids, has a propensity for truth-telling!
The legendary tennis champion recently shared just how deep her 5-year-old Olympia Ohanian's desire to be transparent is, when revealing a recent situation the pair encountered while out and about.
In a tweet posted July 16, which has now amassed over 8 million views, Williams explained how she received a compliment on her hairstyle while the two were out together, prompting the young girl to let the unassuming "nice lady" know the exact specifics of said hairstyle.
"Nice lady: I love your hair," the Twitter post read, including the stellar athlete's response, "Me: Awww Thanks!"
The simple exchange could have ended right there, but if you know anything about kids, you understand how much they love to over-share, never skimping on the details. The social media note continued, divulging that the tot then cut in with a response of her own: "Olympia : It’s a WIG!!!"

It is obviously a child's job to humble a parent (with haste), and they have absolutely no problem taking that job seriously.
As one can imagine, laughing-face emojis filled the comments thread under the wholesome yet hilariously unhinged tweet.

"The honesty of kids. lol," one fan noticed, as a second jokingly appreciated, "Haha kids can be mean but I love that humor."
Another shared her own experience, writing, "Relatable. Been there. Got a t-shirt! My child was telling everybody my business from toddlerism to 6th grade. (She's going into 7th this year.)"
"It be your own Kids!" one top-liked comment insisted.
Someone else applauded, "Shouts to you and Alex [Ohanian] for raising an honest queen," and well, we guess all we can say is... honesty is the best policy, right?
