Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian sends his love to Shina Novalinga after singer opens up on mental health struggles

Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian showed his support for singer and activist Shina Novalinga after she revealed that she has been struggling with mental illness.

Novalinga conveyed that she attempted to kill herself on November 1 as the 24-year-old found it arduous to cope with the mental stress she was under. The singer, who is currently in recovery, took to social media to state that she attempted suicide a few days back and that she is currently in recovery.

"I want to share my story with you because I know deep down I’m not alone. I am tired of putting this image everyday when in reality, I am battling with depression. Mental illness is real. I am grateful to be given another chance. I am grateful for my family and my friends. I know I can get better, I know we can get out of this. Time off is needed. Thank you for being by my side," she wrote in her Instagram post.

Ohanian and several others replied to the Canadian's post to show their support.
