Serena and Venus deny reports
Insiders are whispering that Serena Williams' partying has caused an
icy rift between her and her sister, Venus Williams.
The tennis champs have not been seen together off the court in recent
weeks, and many wonder if Serena's late nights out and disappointing
doubles performances have annoyed the more low-key Venus. An insider was
heard during the US Open claiming, "They're not in a good place right
now. Venus is angry with Serena," because of her active social life off
the court. Some noticed Venus and Serena didn't arrive together or even
speak to each other at the Taste of Tennis kick-off event for the US
Open a few weeks ago.
"There was no acknowledgement that either one was even there," said
one. Nor have they been visible on one another's Instagram feeds.
The last picture of Venus on Serena's feed was three months ago;
Serena appeared on Venus' feed two months ago. On Tuesday, there was no
sign of Venus at Serena's presentation of her HSN clothing line at the
Style360 lounge during Fashion Week.
The sisters lost in the US Open women's doubles quarter-finals after
they had to pull out at Wimbledon, where Serena developed a mysterious
illness. They'd also declined to appear together at a mandatory press
conference after losing at the US Open.
