Reportedly, Serena Williams has mentioned, “Qai Qai is a doll I got for her”.
She further added, “Growing up I didn’t have that many opportunities to have black dolls. And I was just thinking like, I want her first doll to be black.”
Talking about her daughter being a Caucasian, Williams added, “Obviously she’s mixed, she’s Caucasian and black, but I feel like that was her first doll and I said her second doll would be Caucasian.”
Qai Qai is seen everywhere along with the family and even has her own official Instagram page. The celebrity doll has over 87,000 followers. So far she has made 68 posts, and even follows a few people, including Venus Williams.
