Serena Williams Looks More Svelte Than Ever in New Bathing Suit Snaps After Dropping 31 Pounds

Serena Williams knows how to set Instagram on fire!

The former professional tennis player and Olympic gold medalist, 44, took to Instagram to share a series of stunning bathing suit photos that showed her looking more svelte than ever. With her long, blonde hair done in tight curls, the iconic athlete wore a cozy pink robe and fuzzy slippers falling off her toned body. The green, one-piece bathing suit highlighted the tennis star's physique, which has gotten significantly slimmer since last year with her announcement that she lost 31 pounds using a GLP-1 medication.

Williams, who has two daughters, Alexis Olympia, 8, and Adira, 2, with husband Alexis Ohanian, shared a message in the caption: "I am not perfect….but I’m perfectly me. Take out time today to celebrate being perfectly you! 💋."

Has Serena Williams Struggled With Her Mental Health?

Last year, Williams appeared to be struggling a bit when she posted a cryptic message to social media about focusing on her mental health. While the tennis icon looked stunning in a series of photos that featured her in a red silk dress in a library, the caption was a bit more mysterious.

“Dearest gentle reader, My summer started out well but I was plunged into a difficult August. Like many of you, I faced challenges that tested my spirit and resilience. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming and it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters—your mental health and well-being. I took some time away to breathe, to reconnect with myself, and to remember that it’s perfectly okay to pause and reconnect. Even if it’s just a quiet night to yourself. Anything counts,” she wrote in the caption.

She went on to say that she “learned that the end of a matter is better than its beginning. And even though things haven’t reached their end yet, I’m also learning to let go and live life one moment at a time. The only thing I’m dealing with in this moment here is how good this dress looks against first editions.”
