Serena Williams’ husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, just revealed a big surprise for his wife - and it’ll be hard to top.

As the tennis star gears up to return to the court next month to play in the BNP Paribas Open at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, Ohanian decided to profess his love and support for Williams - by plastering it across four billboards on a California freeway.

Displayed on California’s 1-10 freeway, the first three billboards spell out “Greatest Momma of All Time,” and the last one reads: “Serena Williams: G.M.O.A.T - Alexis Jr + Sr” alongside a picture of Serena and baby Alexis.

Humble-bragging about his surprise on Instagram, Ohanian uploaded pictures of the billboards with the caption: “These just went up alongside I-10 into Palm Springs. @olympiaohanian & I wanted to welcome her back to tennis. Designed them myself, with some help from Jr. #GMOAT.”

Two of the billboards feature baby Alexis Jr and the other two display images of both mum and baby.

The tech inventor's post has received over 38,000 likes - and people can't contain their feelings.

Many people are praising the display of affection - and calling Ohanian the greatest husband of all time.

However, while some people found the gesture incredibly sweet, others are cringing at the extremely public display.

But whether you’d want a billboard or four dedicated to you or not, it is undeniable it was a thoughtful gesture.

Next month will be the first time Williams competes in tennis since taking a hiatus after giving birth to the couple’s daughter, Alexis, in September 2017.

And when you are married to the greatest tennis star of all time, you have to pull out all the stops.
