MusaMonday brought some fun news that had fans buzzing: Alexis Ohanian, co‑founder of Reddit and proud husband of tennis legend Serena Williams, will be joining Shark Tank for Season 17 as a guest investor! He shared the exciting update on social media, teasing, “Looks like the secret is out. Can’t wait for y’all to watch”
It’s a thrill to see him move from tech and venture capital into one of TV’s most beloved business shows. Shark Tank fans are already celebrating, with comments like: “This is awesome! Those entrepreneurs are so lucky to have you there.”
What’s even cooler? Alexis isn’t just investing his money—he’s brought his passion for women’s sports to the business realm. Over the past few years, he’s played a huge role behind the scenes of women’s athletics, from co‑founding Angel City FC in the NWSL to launching Athlos, a women’s-only track and field event.
He also recently bought a 10% stake in Chelsea FC Women for around £20 million, becoming an investor and board member while supporting the push for more respect and visibility for women’s soccer.
His business journey is as dynamic as Serena’s on the court. When he told Serena he wanted to invest in a women’s soccer team, she initially tried to talk him out of it—having faced firsthand the challenges in women’s sports—but that only fueled his determination.
Now, armed with discipline learned from watching the “GOAT” herself, Alexis is bringing his sharp investor instincts to Shark Tank. Serena has even called him the “GOAT of investing,” a compliment from her that speaks volumes.
So what can viewers look forward to? Expect Shark Tank to get a fresh vibe with Alexis around—an investor who combines tech savvy, venture capital experience, and a genuine mission to uplift women’s sports and entrepreneurship.
All in all, it’s a winning combination: a power couple making meaningful moves—Alexis stepping into our living rooms via Shark Tank, and Serena redefining excellence both on and off the court. Season 17 just got a whole lot more exciting!
