At the 2026 Golden Globe Awards, actress Wunmi Mosaku openly announced her second pregnancy. The moment became memorable because of the way she chose to share the news at one of the film’s biggest nights.

Serena Williams recently shared family photos from her sister’s wedding, expecting the usual stream of congratulations. Instead, she was met with comments questioning her skin tone, with some accusing her of “lightening” her skin, a claim that spread quickly online without any evidence.
Her husband, Alexis Ohanian, responded publicly, using X (formerly Twitter) to challenge the criticism. He wrote: “Where are all the comments from people who don’t understand how photography lighting works?” The message was clear: Serena’s appearance in the photos was influenced by lighting, not cosmetic alteration.

When some users tried to twist his response, Ohanian clarified further, pointing out that photos from the same event can look different depending on lighting and camera angles. His direct approach stood out at a time when vague, polished statements are often the norm for celebrities under scrutiny.
Williams has faced similar criticism before. In the past, she has directly addressed accusations about her skin tone, emphasising that differences in her appearance in photos are a result of lighting, not cosmetic changes. “I’m a dark Black woman, and I love who I am,” she said, shutting down speculation in straightforward terms.

Ohanian’s defence of Serena reflects a growing trend among public figures: confronting online misinformation head on rather than ignoring it. Social media users praised him for defending her clearly and firmly, noting that such directness is rare.
This incident highlights a wider issue, the intense scrutiny women, particularly Black women, face regarding their appearance. For Serena, the focus should remain on her achievements as a tennis icon and global role model, not on unfounded speculation about her skin. Ohanian’s response serves as a reminder that misinformation can be challenged directly and that public figures, with the support of those closest to them, can take control of how their stories are told.
