Serena Williams was also featured in another episode of this documentary series. She was candid about her opinions about the relationship of her good friend Meghan Markle with Prince Harry of the UK.

“I’m looking at it through the lens of my friend, not a princess. They as a couple are so tight. And rely on each other so much… I was just super excited,” she had said.

Meghan Markle lives with her husband Prince Harry and their children Archie and Lilibet in Montecito, California, USA. The 7-time Australian Open champion is very happy for the couple as now they have a complete and happy family.

“They are creating their own family and friends can be family too,” she added further.

Serena Williams after retiring from professional tennis is enjoying her time with her family and friends. However, she misses the sport as much as her fans are missing her.

“The chances [of a return] are very high. You can come to my house, I have a court,” she said teasingly.

Will the 7-time Wimbledon champion make a return to the sport? Except for Serena no body knows. However, her fans will love it if she does.
