We might know the sex of Serena Williams' baby, thanks to a slip-up from her sister Venus in a recent interview. According to the hint, the tennis champ may be expecting a girl.

"She's gonna call me 'favorite aunt,'" Venus said today, when a Eurosport reporter asked what Serena's baby will call her.

"We're all like, 'Baby V, baby Lyn, baby Isha.' We all want the baby to be named after us," she continued. (Note the list of girls' names.)

If what Venus hinted is true, this wouldn't be the first accidental reveal in Williams' pregnancy. Serena's baby announcement on social media was completely unintentional, too. The 35-year-old explained she had been taking pictures to document the growth of her baby bump, when she accidentally posted one on Snapchat. She deleted it soon after, but the photo had already gone viral by the time she took it down, causing her publicist to confirm the news.

Williams' accidental announcement took place on April 19, when she confirmed she was already 20 weeks pregnant. This marks her first child with fiancé and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.
