Serena Williams Takes Offence at Daughters Being Denied Entry Into Parisian Royalty – ‘Never With My Kids’.

Over time, Serena Williams has faced a different kettle of fish both on and off the court.

Now, even after her retirement, a new challenge has emerged that involves her children.

The 23-time Grand Slam champion recently vented her annoyance on social media after she and her children were turned away from a Parisian restaurant.

The 42-year-old American tennis legend is currently in Paris to witness the magic of the Olympics with her whole family by her side.

However, as the event is over, Williams is enjoying her time in the city, where she faced a terrible experience at one of the luxurious hotels in town.

The former world number one took to her Twitter handle to share how The Peninsula Paris denied her entry in the first place.

She wrote, “Yikes @peninsulaparis, I’ve been denied access to rooftop to eat in a empty restaurant of nicer places 🫠 but never with my kids. Always a first.”

Williams’s recent episode reflects her continuous struggles with unfair treatment; she once claimed she experienced “discrimination” in drug testing since she was tested more frequently than her rivals. In 2018, she tweeted about this problem with the hashtag “#BeingSerena.”

Not only that but in a 2018 interview, Williams also addressed the critical comments about her appearance. She acknowledged that while the criticism had taken a toll, she had grown to love her body.

Williams stated, “People would say I was born a guy, all because of my arms, or because I’m strong. I was different from Venus: she was thin and tall and beautiful, and I am strong and muscular — and beautiful, but, you know, it was just totally different.”

But only a few months ago, Serena Williams’ partner, Alexis Ohanian, talked about the attention his children frequently get and the steps he takes to shield them from it.

In a past revelation, Alexis Ohanian discussed the challenges of raising kids in the spotlight.

He expressed his desire to shield his children from the notion that their worth is tied solely to their famous parents.

Ohanian believes it’s essential for his kids to feel special for their own reasons, not just because of their celebrity status.

On the other hand, Williams took offense when her daughters were denied entry into a prestigious Parisian restaurant, an incident that struck a deep chord with the tennis legend and even upsetted the tennis world. Nevertheless, what are your thoughts on the same? Do let us know in the comment section below.

“Dear Mrs. Williams,” the hotel wrote, “Please accept our deepest apologies for the disappointment you encountered tonight.

“Unfortunately, our rooftop bar was indeed fully booked and the only unoccupied tables you saw belonged to our gourmet restaurant, L’Oiseau Blanc, which was fully reserved.

“We have always been honored to welcome you and will always be to welcome you again.”

She didn’t respond to the hotel’s apology. On her Instagram Stories, Williams posted a video of the United States’ men’s volleyball matchup against Brazil.

Williams was among the torch bearers for the Paris Olympics.
