Serena Williams empowers moms with postpartum body positivite
Serena Williams shares a powerful message about postpartum body positivity, inspiring moms worldwide to embrace self-love and acceptance.
The six-time US Open champion was excited for fellow Americans Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys.
Former World No.1 and 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams made her first public comments since giving birth to a daughter one week ago, tweeting praise Friday to the US Open women’s finalists.
Williams was pregnant when she won the Australian Open in January, moving within one Slam singles crown of Margaret Court’s all-time record, and revealed in April on Twitter she was having a baby and would not play again this year.
The six-time US Open champion was excited for fellow Americans Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys, whose Saturday showdown for the title at Arthur Ashe Stadium will be the first Grand Slam final for each of them.
