While the world focuses on the Paris Olympics, Venus Williams is taking a break from tennis and enjoying a holiday.
Recently, the seven-time Grand Slam champion stirred romance rumors with pictures alongside actor Andrea Preti.
The big question remains: has the American tennis legend found a partner in the Italian actor?
Since splitting from Nicholas Hammond in 2019, Williams has stayed single, focusing on her health and preparing for a tennis comeback. Despite her private nature, rumors about her personal life frequently emerge.
People are interested in Venus Williams' private life
Last year, speculation arose about a romantic relationship with fellow tennis player Reilly Opelka. Both athletes clarified they were just good friends, allowing Williams to concentrate on her tennis goals without distractions.
However, recent events suggest that Venus Williams' quest for love might be nearing an end. A fan posted photos on Twitter of Williams in Nerano, Italy, with producer and actor Andrea Preti. The photos, showing the two displaying affection, have fueled excitement and speculation about a possible new romance.
In the pictures, the 44-year-old tennis player and the 36-year-old actor appeared comfortable and close.
One photo shows Preti standing behind Williams with his hands on her shoulders, while another captures him whispering in her ear. Williams wore a green hat and an olive-green dress with a plunging neckline, exuding summer vibes. Preti, on the other hand, sported an unbuttoned white shirt, showcasing his chiseled chest. Details about when the couple started dating remain unclear.
This brings to mind Venus Williams' earlier efforts to find love, including joining a dating app. The Sun reported that the WTA star created a profile on Raya, featuring a sweet picture of herself with her pet dog.
Her profile mentioned she was "visiting London from Palm Beach Gardens," offering a glimpse into her life. In a previous interview with Glamour Magazine, the five-time Wimbledon champion shared her challenges in meeting potential suitors and her ongoing struggle to make a lasting connection.
