Is Serena Williams Too Thin? Fans Divided Over Yacht Shoot Bikini Snaps
Serena Williams Sets Sizzling Summer Vibes Ablaze with Latest Instagram Scorch
The tennis queen is back, and she's brought her A-game! Serena Williams, 43, has sent shockwaves through the internet with a sultry set of bikini snaps that have left fans both mesmerized and divided.
In the photos, the iconic Wimbledon champion flaunts her post-retirement glow-up in a series of sizzling shots taken during a luxe yacht getaway. One snap shows Serena striking a high-fashion pose, showcasing her toned physique and sculpted curves like a seasoned swimsuit model. Another photo features her perched on the edge of the boat in a sheer sarong and bikini top, with a stunning ocean backdrop that's simply postcard-worthy.
But it wasn't just Serena's stunning looks that had everyone talking – her caption also sparked controversy! "Me and my girls... are out in the streets tonight. But we starting here," she wrote, along with a peek at her glamorous yacht companions. While many fans praised her latest look, others were quick to sound off, accusing the superstar of changing her figure too drastically.
"Too thin... why?" one critic asked, sparking a heated back-and-forth in the comments. Some fans defended Serena's new look, while others claimed they barely recognized her. "She's definitely not thick anymore," someone chimed in, prompting another commenter to chime in with, "They don't know that she was even thinner from 1998-2007."
Of course, many fans rushed to staunchly defend the superstar, with one fan writing, "I dunno what ppl talking about she still thick and healthy let her live!" Another commenter posted, "She's not too thin, her body looks like how it looked around 2013-2014." A fierce defender even fired back, saying, "They just want to trash Serena all the time. She too thick, she too muscular, she too slim, her husband white, she bleaching her skin. When they see she still dark they realize it was just makeup and lighting why she looked light, they ain't have sh** to say. One thing though, Serena is living her life!"
Meanwhile, Serena's tennis legacy continues to dominate headlines – both on and off the court! The icon last claimed a Grand Slam title in 2017, winning the Australian Open, although she fell short in the US Open and Wimbledon finals twice more after that.
Over her illustrious career, Serena has won an astonishing 23 Grand Slam singles titles – the most by any player in the Open Era – and spent an impressive 319 weeks as world No. 1! Her most recent match came at the 2022 US Open, where she battled Ajla Tomljanovic in a grueling three-hour, three-set thriller before coming up short.
Off the court, Serena balances her business ventures and philanthropy with family life alongside husband Alexis Ohanian and their two daughters. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. (known as Olympia), in September 2017. They expanded their family five years later when Serena gave birth to their younger daughter, Adira River Ohanian, in August 2023.
But it's not just Serena who's making waves – her older sister Venus is also proving age is just a number! The seven-time Slam champ recently secured a wild card to compete in the DC Open at age 45. And with Serena's latest Instagram drop still making headlines, it seems like these tennis sisters are ready to take on the world once again!
