Dare to change Trevor Noah's book title 'Born a crime' to 'Born a Star' and it may likely not exactly describe how phenomenal Venus Ebony Starr Williams happened to be.
On June 17, 1980, the world witnessed the birth of one who would someday become the world's number 1 professional tennis champion with seven grand slam titles and four Olympic gold medals beneath her belt. One who always seemed to have her way on the tennis court.
Indeed, the 41-year-old rules on the tennis court like a tigress in the jungle needing no king, and is regarded as one of the most skilled tennis players ever.
However, nothing is more entrapping about a star's life like the juicy gossip of their private romance behind closed doors and away from listening ears.
Venus Williams is one star whose intimate life story strikes a chord, and this is all to know about Venus Williams's relationship life, past and present.
Venus Williams's Relationship Status
The forty-one-year-old tigress is single, and she's pretty happy with that.
From a live recording on Instagram in 2021, Williams said "Lots of people asking me to go on a date. I'm just not. I would say, 'I'm undateable.' That's OK, I'm happy" as a response to a Fan's question about her love life.
But hold on, what about Nicholas Hammond?
Nicholas Hammond's relationship with Venus Williams
Thirty-one-year-old Nicholas Hammond dated star Venus Williams who is twelve years older.
Nicky is a millionaire who studied at Trinity School before moving over to New York University. He is a successful financier and heir to the Annenberg family fortune who's worked for high-tier clients.
The two started dating in 2017, and Hammond's involvement with Williams was on the low because folks mistook him for Elio Pis, Williams ex.
The couple was spotted showing off a public display of affection, attending Serena and Alexis Ohanian's wedding together. Nicky was seen motivating his girlfriend on the court.
In 2019, the couple called it a wrap but still haven't presented a tangible reason for their break up to the public.
What about other men she dated?
Tough and beautiful Williams was often seen alongside fellow tennis player Reilly Opelika in 2021, brewing up speculations that both were a thing after her break up with Hammond but an Instagram Q&A session solved the puzzle.
"No @ReillyOpelka shot me down." was her reply when asked by a follower if she and Reilly were a thing.
However, before Hammond, there was a pro golfer Hank Kuehne whom she dated from 2007 to 2010, and Cuban model Elio Pis whom she started dating in 2012 after working together on her EleVen fashion line.
Does Venus Williams have kids?
That would be NO, but she's been a proud dog mom to her young Havanese son Harold Reginald Williams.
Does Venus Williams plan on getting married someday?
Per Essentially Sports, Williams noted, "I get a lot of questions asking if I am married, am I getting married, or if I will marry you. The answer is NO to all of them."
Williams enjoys her freedom, spilling to Cosmopolitan in 2021; she said getting married wasn't her priority plus "I have a lot of friends who don't believe me when I say that I like my life, and I don't want to change it for any reason. I'm not desperate, and they don't believe me. They say things like, 'You're going to miss your window.' I'm like, 'Please, relax. You might feel this way, but I don't. I promise you I don't," she said.
