Serena Williams is expecting a baby girl, according to Venus Williams. Venus appeared to spill the beans during an interview with Eurosport on Wednesday, May 31.
“On social media you press the wrong button and … 30 minutes later I missed four calls and I’m like, ‘That’s weird,’” she told Gayle King during a TED conference in Vancouver on April 25. “I have this thing where I’ve been checking my status and taking pictures every week to see how far along I’m getting. I’ve been so good about it, but this was the one time it slipped.”
In the selfie, Serena showed off her growing baby bump and wrote “20 weeks.”
The athlete’s rep Kelly Bush Novak confirmed to Reuters that Serena is taking maternity leave, but she will be back on the court next year.
